Camborne Science and International Academy (formally Camborne Science & Community College) is an academy school and sixth form in Camborne, Cornwall, England, UK. The school teaches 1,267 11- to 18-year-olds. == School == When the school opened on 18 April 1956 it was known as Treswithian Secondary Modern and was equipped for the use of 508 pupils.〔Headmaster's Log Book (1956-57), held within the school library〕 It expanded to become Camborne School and Community College at the introduction of the Comprehensive school system, absorbing the disestablished Camborne Grammar School. In 2003 it gained specialist status as a Science College, and the name again changed to reflect this. In April 2011 the school attained academy status, and on 1 September 2011 the school was renamed as Camborne Science and International Academy. Since then, the school has been extended with a £3.2 million Design Technology block, incorporating the Design Technology, Food Technology and Graphical Drawing subjects, and those related to them. As well as this, there has been a full refurbishment of the school’s main canteen, toilet facilities and of the Sixth Form area. Along with Redruth School and Helston School, Camborne is part of the Kerrier School Partnership, providing cross-institutional learning opportunities and the sharing of some staff and resources to benefit students at both. The school also holds links with Cornwall College and the Duchy College, providing educational opportunities on vocational subjects to Key Stage 4 students and those participating in their 'GOLD' programme. Former Deputy Headteacher, Bill Marshall is now the headteacher of Humphry Davy School in Penzance. According to government figures, the school is 'Broadly Average' in the progress made by students from ages 11 to 16. In the 2008 Ofsted inspection, the report concluded the school to be 'Good with outstanding features'. It was announced by the government in March 2010 that the Cornwall Council, the school's Local Authority had secured £69m funding, a portion of which is rumoured to be used to rebuilt the school on the current site of one of their sports' fields, although the funding was to have been made under the Building Schools for the Future (BSF) programme which was later cut back. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Camborne Science and International Academy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
