THS has been established as part of the Secondary Education Modernization Programme(SEMP). This program seeks to effect a complete revision of the curriculum taught at secondary schools, moving from content oriented to a student curriculum thus contributing to an active and participatory learning environment at secondary schools. The goal is to teach students who are involved with the new curricula to think critically, to solve problems, to become autonomous and to become lifelong learners. In essence the objective is to teach students the skills that are considered necessary to succeed in a competitive global environment.

Approximately 8 miles from Princes Town, in the County of Victoria, where the Hindustan Road to Devil's Woodyard rejoins the Naparima Mayaro Road at George Village is where THS will be found.
This institution has been constructed on an 8 acre parcel of land, carved out of the gently undulating pastoral lands which were formerly part of Caroni's La Gloria Estate, currently devoted to citrus production and the rearing of livestock animals.
