Our Colleges
Leigh Academy Tonbridge is organised into two colleges, Delphi and Lyceum, with students placed in mixed ability form groups within these colleges. Each college benefits from its own team of support staff (a head of college, deputy head of college, a director of progress and two student support managers), which ensures all students are known, cared for and challenged to succeed.
