Torpoint Community College (often referred to as 'TTC') is a secondary school in south-east Cornwall, England. It educates 775 students aged 11 to 18. It started life as a 'secondary modern' school before becoming a comprehensive in the 1970s. Traditionally students lived exclusively in the Torpoint and Rame Peninsula, more recently they have been joined by a number of students travelling from Plymouth via the ferry over the River Tamar.

The school's most notable former pupil in the area of public life is Sheryll Murray, Conservative Member of Parliament for South East Cornwall. Another former pupil is (Jack Stephens.

TCC's Sixth Form was opened in the late 1990s (prior to which pupils left school at 16 with some continuing their educations elsewhere) and offers a wide range of AS and A Level subjects as well as vocational courses for post-16 students.
