Introduction
After that humble beginning in a residential building in the small but crowded city of Hoshiarpur, the School made steady progress and is now an ICSE School situated in the lush green surroundings of village Asalpur, District Hoshiarpur in a two-acre piece of land. The Sylvan surroundings of this small village at the Shiwalik foothills with eucalyptus & poplar plantations, green fields and a calm and salubrious atmosphere"far from the madding crowd" of the city makes Trinity a dream come true for the many students from Hoshiarpur and the neighbouring villages. The urban pupils enjoy the bus ride which brings them to mingle with their numerous friends from the countryside, bringing them closer to nature. It is a mutually enriching experience for both the rural and urban students as it promotes understanding between them and makes them better human beings. The few students from other countries make this experience memorable for all Trinitians.
Unlike most modern schools, Trinity believes in a tradition that prepares students for the future. This is reflected in everything from the discipline that is repeatedly stressed upon to the architecture that is conducive to a more natural lifestyle with ample light and cross-ventilation making the building environment friendly and air-conditioners unnecessary. The large, spacious classrooms and the open corridors in place of the modem ones with the classrooms on both sides have been deliberately designed to make the best use of natural light and fresh air.
Intellectual formation is given with the help of a course of studies to the mental development of the students. As far as studies go, we stress on "keeping our windows open but not being swept off our feet" by modernity which is why, despite our work and teaching being in English, we stress on the teaching of Punjabi and Hindi (as subjects) along with the best of Indian/Punjabi tradition before we can lead on our children to greater heights of a world culture and humanity.
Teachers at Trinity undergo extensive training stretching over months after induction to fit in with the unique character of the School which has developed over the years. At regular intervals, teachers need to attend intensive training sessions and demonstration lessons. Work shadowing also forms an integral part of training. Student-teacher ratio at 32:1 is strictly adhered to so that teachers get ample time with each student and can do their work efficiently and in a relaxed manner.
