A place where students and teachers form a strong community, extending beyond the classroom, where numbers don’t replace names, and everyone is valued. It’s a place where lifelong friendships are forged, where lives are changed, and the world is changed as a result.
Trident College is an international boarding school and community where the aspirations and potential of every student are fostered, nurtured, and challenged. We are dedicated to inspiring within each student the pursuit of knowledge, the love of wisdom, an appreciation for beauty and the development of strong character. These values, coupled with physical activity, artistic endeavours, and service to others are the foundations of the school ethos. The experience at Trident College is unique. Few other places have the benefit of a game reserve on their doorstep with excellent educational facilities and teachers from all over the world.
“Trident College seeks to unlock the potential within each child, as we prepare them to take on the mantle of global citizenship in a dynamic and changing world.”
Teachers from around the world have been employed to provide a caring, child-centered education that values problem solving, critical thinking and meaningful interaction. This is done in the context of a residential boarding school that offers a broad curriculum from years 6 to 13, that includes examinations set by the Cambridge Examinations Syndicate at IGCSE and A level. Trident is an independent, co-educational school with pupils from throughout Zambia, southern Africa and the world. The school is located on a game park in North West Zambia and was established by the local mining company (First Quantum Minerals Limited) to meet their need for top-quality secondary education. Increasingly, Trident College is becoming a self-sustaining national asset as parents choose to enroll their children in this forward thinking international school.
