More Details

Our Main School

Camden School for Girls is a comprehensive school that provides an excellent education for all its students. We enable our students to find their own voices and develop their own opinions by encouraging a broad understanding of the world, a social conscience and a considerate approach to other people.

Every student is valued, and we encourage all students to value other people as well. Our aim is to nurture caring, confident, responsible and mature young adults who are ready to go on to the next stage of their education.

Our Sixth Form

We believe that the two years spent in the Sixth Form should be a pivotal period in the lives of our students: a time for maturing as well as developing academically, with many opportunities for rich and varied new experiences. We aim to foster in our students both self-confidence and an independence of mind so that they can approach their learning with vigour and enthusiasm.

Our success is reflected in our excellent exam results and rate of progression to Higher Education.

So great to hear actor David Nellist @nellidge talk about his life and work this week. The importance of self belief and passion, but also hard graft and teamwork were the take aways. Good luck with the remaining I, Daniel Blake dates. https://t.co/rdSvj98pIO
