Our headteacher Mrs Penny Shilston

Introduction from the Headteacher Archbishop Benson School is a Church of England Aided School which is built within a large attractive site overlooking the beautiful City of Truro. It is a very happy successful school. Our high standards are sustained because staff, Governors, parents and children work together in an atmosphere of mutual trust, care and respect – the distinguishing features of a Christian Community. In addition to our high academic achievement, we are proud that our school has a strong sporting tradition. Music and the arts also play an important part in school life. Parents are always welcome, whether to discuss their child's progress, to help with Reading Roundabout or to join our Parents Association. We look forward to meeting you. Penny Shilston Headteacher
