Tonbridge School is an independent day and boarding school for boys in Tonbridge, Kent, England, founded in 1553 by Sir Andrew Judd ( sometimes spelled Judde ).

Unlike many of the great public schools which were founded in this era, Tonbridge was not set up for poor scholars, as shown in the original statutes, in which a clause reads that any boy admitted to the school had to be able to " write competently and to read perfectly both English and Latin ".

The school remembers its founder every year on Skinners ' Day, and also remembers other benefactors such as Sir Thomas Smythe, Judd's grandson, who was governor of the East India Company for fifteen years and who took part in establishing the colony of Virginia ; as well as Henry Fisher, who founded a scholarship from Tonbridge to Brasenose College, Oxford ; and Sir Thomas White, founder of St John's College, Oxford and Merchant Taylors ' School, who gave Tonbridge a fellowship, later converted into a scholarship, at his college.
