The Tripos is a self-accredited award created exclusively for the Sixth Form at the Royal High School Bath. It is an award unique to the Sixth Form that aims to develop skills and experience outside the classroom environment. The term Tripos is taken from Cambridge University, who use the term to denote the three achievements necessary to graduate and prepare students for life beyond academic study. This notion is firmly embedded in the Royal High School Tripos with the focus being on experience and development outside the classroom which serves as preparation for university study and future professional success. The Tripos award consists of three elements: Curiositas – aims to develop a curiosity and pursuit of knowledge Civitas – aims to develop a sense of service and commitment to a cause beyond yourself Conatus – aims to develop a sense of challenge and endeavour to reach beyond their grasp For students to achieve the Tripos award they must successfully complete all three elements.
