Campion School
Top 2 in Top 6 Best British Schools in Athens
Leading English-language private international school Campion School serves about 650 children from foreign residents, the Greek diaspora, and local Greeks from Nursery through Year 13 (ages three to eighteen) with an adapted British educational curriculum. Children from more than 40 different countries make up the student body.
The vast majority of Campion School's highly qualified faculty members have degrees from UK universities; a smaller percentage have degrees from American and Commonwealth universities; and nearly all of the teachers of foreign languages are native speakers of their respective countries. Maintaining the current curriculum and other educational developments is ensured for teachers through ongoing in-service training and conference attendance.
Children in junior school spend a significant portion of the day in small groups with their class teacher, who is well-versed in any issues or challenges. The kids are divided into smaller forms under the direction of a Form Teacher in the Senior School, where they receive instruction from numerous teachers.
Furthermore, each of the three schools—the Lower School (years 7, 8, and 9), the Middle School (years 10 and 11), and the Upper School (years 12 and 13)—has a dedicated Year Tutor who works to promptly identify and address any issues a student may be having, whether they be social or academic. Every student is a member of a "House," which is the name of a mythical Greek hero and serves as the focal point for various competitions, including sporting events.
The goal of Campion School is to provide every student with the best chance possible for future academic success. Students in Years 7-9 of the Lower School follow a modified version of the British curriculum, and in Year 10, they enroll in the Cambridge IGCSE program.
Students take the IGCSE exams after Year 11, which are an excellent academic preparation for the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma program and a pre-qualification for British universities. The school's Universities Counsellor, IB Coordinator, and Year 12 & 13 Year Tutors provide three-fold support to all Campion students who take part in the IB Diploma.
In IB1, there is an after-school SAT preparation program to assist with applications to the US. Several of the most prominent universities in Canada, the United States, the EU, and Great Britain have accepted students.
