Throughout the school emphasis is placed on making the learning experience enjoyable and interesting. The school enters each pupil for public examinations. A statement of the Summer 1999 public examination results is included in this folder. Every boy achieved a minimum of seven GCSE passes. These results enabled Camp Hill tomaintain its prominent position in all the various national league tables.
Staff are well qualified and turnover is low.
All subjects are taught by specialist teachers, many of whom also have a high level of involvement in extra curricular activity. Staff training is afforded a high priority, with emphasis on keeping abreast of changes in public examinations. All new staff undergo a detailed induction course during their first year at the school. Within the narrow ability range, teaching groups are of mixed ability, except in Mathematics and French, where pupils are in sets in the years preceding the GCSE examination. There is no fast stream.
