The school's most notable former pupil in the area of public life is Sheryll Murray, Conservative Member of Parliament for South East Cornwall.

TCC's Sixth Form was opened in the late 1990s (prior to which pupils left school at 16 with some continuing their educations elsewhere) and offers a wide range of AS and A Level subjects for post-16 students.
