Welcome to the Sir James Smith's Community School website

 

Sir James Smith's Community School is a small 11-16, co-educational comprehensive school serving the market town of Camelford and the surrounding area. We have a proud history and a determination and a will to become the very best.

 

We are a community comprehensive school therefore we are fully inclusive and committed to catering for the full ability range. We try to maintain high standards of achievement within a disciplined and caring framework. We have high expectations of all our students and they can and do realise those expectations whatever their ability.

 

We know that children are more successful when their parents and school work together constructively to support learning; we call this the 'triangle of success'. We like to hear from our parents and encourage you to contact the school to establish and maintain a relationship with your child's tutor and / or teachers.

 

We hope that this website answers some of your questions about the school but no website can take the place of a visit; you are welcome to contact the school and arrange to come in and look around during the school day where you will be shown around by students or, if you prefer, a member of staff.

 

We are trying to improve communication with parents and if there is any information that is not readily available please let us know.
