Campsmount Academy

Principal's Welcome

Welcome to Campsmount Academy, the academy that is focused on 'Creating the best version of you today, for success tomorrow'. I hope you find our website informative and that it provides a valuable insight into the fantastic students our academy develops. 

Campsmount Academy is a happy, ambitious, inspirational and inclusive place where students and teachers enjoy learning together. We have a clear vision for the Academy: Creating the best version of you today, for success tomorrow. This is built on our four core values of Pride, Ambition, Integrity and Responsibility. A Campsmount student lives and breathes these daily – they are the foundations of our culture. All of our stakeholders within the Campsmount Academy community are committed to this clear vision and are driven by our shared understanding of what success for our students looks like and how we achieve that together. 

To maximise success, we have developed a Character and Academic curriculum. Positive character is acquired through explicit character education (ASPIRE), whereby high academic attainment is acquired through the study of key skills and knowledge in each subject area: both of which are valued equally highly. 

Campsmount Academy is a rapidly improving secondary school of almost 800 students with a growing collaborative Post 16 provision. We are now oversubscribed in Year 7 2022 and we are very fortunate to be housed in a new building with state of the art facilities. We pride ourselves on the aspirational, supportive and caring community we have here at Campsmount Academy and we welcome new students wholeheartedly. Our team of dedicated staff and students will be on hand to ensure that your child feels safe, welcome and receives the best pastoral and academic support and challenge throughout their time here. Whilst at Campsmount Academy extra-curricular and enrichment opportunities to develop student’s cultural capital are a significant part of our offer. 

We take an inclusive approach that maintains a focus on the wellbeing and progress of every child, we provide a safe place for learning through the application of our positive behaviour system and attention to individual student circumstances and needs. We firmly believe that students will ultimately achieve better results by establishing a positive and supportive partnership between parents and teachers. 

Through this website, I hope you enjoy discovering more about the fantastic opportunities which are available to all students here at Campsmount Academy.
