Our mantra of ‘Preparation for Life’ focuses on ensuring that our curriculum enables our children to achieve their best in English and Maths, as well as providing wider skills such as negotiation and planning through organising events. We have a strong focus on personal development, behaviour and welfare to ensure that our pupils and families get the most out of their time at South Camberley.
We are based on three sites in Camberley, two infant / nursery campuses and a junior campus. This provides us with a wide range of facilities and opportunities to provide our pupils.
