Campion School

School Profile

Founded in 1970, Campion School is an independent, not-for-profit organization governed by a Board of Trustees, providing a British-style education complete with a full range of extra-curricular activities to students from 3 to 18 years from over forty countries. The school is a member of the Council of International Schools (CIS). It is also a member of the Council of International Schools (COBIS) and the Headmaster is a member of the Headmasterâ��s Conference (HMC).

The School is located in its own purpose-built premises in the suburb of Pallini, 16 km east of the city centre, where a full range of academic, sporting and artistic facilities has been constructed. The school organizes a bus service covering the most popular suburbs in the Athens area. Each bus has an adult supervisor in addition to the driver.

The academic programme is based on the National Curriculum (England and Wales) adapted to make full use of the location and culture of Greece. Courses lead to IGCSE and the International Baccalaureate Diploma. Class sizes are generally small, and children's progress is carefully monitored by a system of class teachers, advisors and Year Tutors. Although the majority of students aim at university education in the United Kingdom, preparation and guidance is also given to students wishing to apply to universities in the USA, and to various American colleges in Greece.

Admission is dependent on interview and reports from previous schools.
