Twyford C. of E. High School

Set up by the London Diocesan Board for Schools. It opened as a result of a concerted campaign by local parents. The admission criteria for the school favour students from practising Christian or other world faiths. The school's motto is "I have come that you should have life, and have it to the full" (John 10:10).
