  • that is too near to the sea
  • its not too close to the sea its the best place for an high school in jamaica. it is awsome
  • This is the best schhol in the whole wide world. Aint no place like it, I thoroughly enjoyed my years there.
  • Titchfield is the old barracks of Fort George which housed British Soldiers. Its sits on a pennisular between East and West Harbour. I recall as astudent jumping the aging battery with the old cannons pointing oyt at sea. The cannons necessary from Pirate and Invasion from Spanish and French. October the wet season and Internatioanl Blue Marlin Tournament is a sight to behold. Hundreds of luxuary boats from around the world can be seen from the class rooms. Titchfield's white sand beach is used by students...no need for swimming pool. Watch scoccer from the high balcony of the auditorium level with the beach in the foreground. The school boasts National athletes and Rohodes scholars. Noel Williams, Phillips and Rosie Allwood. Musicians and music industry celebs, Michael Campbell.... Dread at the controls, Fleurette Edwards, Richard Burgess, Fleurette Harris....to name topped by the nations top lawyers and industrialists like Dennis Chin
  • It is anice school, and i love it.
  • eight years ago,I was boarded in Portland to attend one of the greatest high school in the world; Titchfield high school. I am closed to the end of my degree (LLB) Law; and I owed my achievement to the members of staff there. It would be a great loss if the school is to be relocated. This would not just affect past students memory but for the future of students to come.I hope the MP for Portland reconsider his plan and aim to preserve the rich heretige of the school. I hope he and his team would not allow financial success to affect the Titchfield vision which is, in short, " Titchfield is the greatest!!!
  • It is the greatest school in the world. I spent all my high school years there and am adding my voice to those who are saying to leave it right it is. All my high school memories are there and those of other family members. Titchfield school somewhere else will not be the Titchfield I attended.
  • I attended Titch between 1971 and 1978 when I graduated from upper sixth. Nowhere else in the world would a high school principal recruit a teacher for one student. Boongie (Mr. Chin) did that for me when I wanted to do A'Level French, even though I was the only student in the class. I cannot forget that ever. It showed me that I should never be reluctant to ask for what I need. God bless titch and I hope they keep it right where it is. For those who post notes, please contact the NY or Fla. chapter of the Alumni Association to see how you can help
  • The most ideal location for an institution, surrounded by the beauty of the oceans, Titchfield stand firm as the greatest institution in Jamaica, holding its historical background firm to heart, being one of the oldest schools in Jamaica.
  • i love titch thats wat make me TITCHRIFIC!!!!!!!!!!!
  • I attened Tichfield in the 60's and to this day Tichfield has always remained in my thoughts, what I learnt from all those years has carried though my life, and others have comment on how I have carried myself though life. I think a very high percentage of that Titchfield can take credit for, I hope the school remain a strong force in Port Antonio, and carry on to educate the young people.

  • I went to Titchfield from 1958-1966. I had cap Thomas then Mortie. What a place to learn! It would be a shame if the school were displaced for the sake of a hotel from which the community would most likely have little benefit or access: fenced off areas, boats filling up the area and tourists who wish to have little or no contact with the locals. It would be the beginnng of wrecking the area like the north coast which with its myriad of hotels and fenced off beaches could be any other tourist resort. The whole philosophy behind the origins of this building is that it would be of benefit for children's education.What does the minister who has proposed this suggestion stand to GAIN?
  • Best school ever thanks to the great teachers there. Just them though ;)
