Curriculum
The curriculum at King Edward VI Camp Hill School for Boys school is ambitious, broad, far-reaching and deep all at the same time. The students at our school are highly talented, often gifted in many ways, and often well-supported by their families and our local community. They deserve the best, and we aim to give them the highest quality experiences both in more traditional academic learning, and across a plethora of super-curricular activities. When we talk about a broad curriculum we implicitly are referring to academic enrichment, sports, music, art, drama, leadership, citizenship, formal qualifications in academia, and life skills that will enable our students to become responsible, caring, giving members of the communities in which they choose to live.

Sixth Form
The Sixth Form has seen the most change of any part of Camp Hill in the last few years, with the huge ‘raise the roof’ extension project seeing a doubling of our communal space. But while the setting has changed, the community certainly hasn’t, with the school fostering the same welcoming attitude to returners and joiners alike. About 100 students stay on from Year 11 each year and around 50 join us from elsewhere. In Sixth Form classes and form groups, all are encouraged to contribute and make the most of their experience from day one.
