Return to College September 2021
Settling In - Staying Safe
I hope you are keeping safe and well and have managed to enjoy a break over the summer. Our focus over the last number of weeks has been planning for a safe return to school for all our pupils and staff in line with the recent Government guidelines. I would like to draw your attention to the following arrangements for the start of term, asking for your patience to read carefully all sections below.
The College will follow the latest guidance from the Department of Education, a copy of which can be accessed here. Please keep an eye on this page for the latest guidance and news.
We are looking forward to welcoming all our Campbell Community back for the new academic year. In the meantime, if you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to get in touch with us via phone 02890 763076 or email: hmoffice@campbellcollege.co.uk
Kindest regards
Robert Robinson M.B.E
Headmaster
