Our son started studying at Cambridge High School last year. We are impressed by the ability and kindness of each and every staff member with whom we have - from the teacher to the admin staff and the principal. We are grateful to learners for being part of this compassionate and diverse community. They do a great job of creating a safe learning space that is an extension of the school.

We would like to thank to CHS Techers from the bottom of our hearts for the love, encouragement and understanding they have given to my daughter this year. She joined CHS this year and we leave our most precious daughter in the hand of the CHS's teacher and they demonstrated such caring and insight we never had a moment’s doubt that our little princess was in the safest hands.
They improve academically and teach new learning techniques to achieve targets .
Thank you once again to All CHS Team

Best choice ever!!! After moving from a small town school in our home language to a British curriculum school in year 10, my child had to learn to think, learn and write in English. The teachers was amazing, they encouraged him and gave him a lot of self confidence. He's now performing well and we look forward to the year 11 exams in summer. Well done Mr Hornsby and your excellent team.
