Trinity High School (Renfrew)

Trinity High School is a Roman Catholic high school in the town of Renfrew, Scotland. Its enrollment is approximately 960 students. The school's building was originally the site of the public school Renfrew High, but over twenty years ago Renfrew High School moved to a new larger site, and the building became Trinity High School. Over the years an ICT block and an extension have been built. The buildings were refurbished 5 years ago.

The Head Teacher is Mr Jack Nellaney. He is assisted by four Deputy Head Teachers - Mr McGrane, Mrs Renfrew, Mrs Haddow and Mr Colligan. Each member of Senior Management has a year group responsibility.

The school's Pastoral system is organised into five houses. These are St Mirin House, St Thomas Aquinas House, St Joseph House, St Ambrose House, St Nicholas House. Each house has a house assembly once a month. Each house also has two house captains, a boy and a girl, who put themselves forward for interview and are selected by the appropriate Pastoral Teacher. Each house is fronted by one teacher, who acts as a Pastoral Teacher to all of the pupils in that house. Each registration class has two representatives who speak on their behalf at House Council meetings.

The School currently offers classes in English, Maths, Art, Music, Science, Physics, Biology/Human Biology, Chemistry, History, Geography, Modern Studies, French, Italian, Home Economics, Graphic Communication, Craft and Design, Physical Education, Computing, Business Management, Administration, Social and Vocational Skills and Psychology. Due to council budget cuts Social and Vocational Skills was scrapped.

The school has many clubs, including Fairtrade (Trinity was the first Fairtrade school in Scotland), Pro-Life, and Association of People with Disability (APD) groups[1], a maths club,the school press group, an art club, science club, S3/4 Interact club, language club and a video production club.
