The
School enjoys an outstanding reputation and has an excellent
record of academic and sporting success. At 16+ our pupils
are all placed in further education, employment or in training.
As a Leading
Edge School we are working to share excellent
practice with other schools – a two way process that
is bringing real benefit to support teachers in the classroom
here and elsewhere.

The
School now has six ICT suites and all pupils take GCSE ICT.
In addition, there are class sets of laptops linked to the
network for flexible working. The last four years have seen
major investment in the School (circa £3.5M) providing
a new Sports Hall, all weather , floodlit Tennis Courts,
new teaching rooms, multi-purpose studio and through Specialist
School Status - Science laboratories and enhanced Mathematics
and ICT facilities.
Commitment to staff development
is extremely important and reflected in our ‘Investor in People’ (IIP)
award. The School has been very successful in guiding colleagues
to promoted posts. The age profile is broad with many young and
recently joined staff (last 2-3 years) and a core of very able
and experienced, longer serving colleagues.

The
School is a hive of activity both at lunchtimes and at the
end of the teaching day. Staff make a significant commitment
to providing enrichment opportunities for all pupils.
There is something for everyone,
pupils and staff alike and new ideas are most welcome.
The Staff
and Parents Association (S&PA) is
very active.
The Governors are very involved in
the management of the School and most supportive.

The
School has a strong Learning Support Department. Staff get to
know the pupils well. Pupils are routinely assessed on entry,
using ability, reading and spelling tests. It is not unusual
for up to half of our new pupils (210 in a Year Group) to be
given varying levels of support to raise standards of Literacy
and Numeracy.
School
Curriculum: Core Science, Maths, English, English Literature,
a Humanity, a Language, Technology, RE, PE together with Options,
including Latin and The Arts and Vocational courses in Performing
Arts, Health and Social Care, Travel and Tourism, Art and Design
and Diploma in Digital Applications (DIDA) complete a broad and
balanced course of study.
Pupils
are given rich and varied opportunities through Art, Drama and
Music and Dance. Pupils of all abilities do well in both curricular
and extra curricular/enrichment activities.
Ours
is described by visitors as a happy school where there is a supportive
structure in which individuals are valued. We are proud of this
and work hard to maintain it. Keep in touch with our Weekly
Bulletin available through this site (all routine communication from school
is via email).
I
hope this has given you a sense of the character of Cams Hill
School. |
