Cambian Northampton School

West Northamptonshire, East Midlands · NN2 6LR

With just 24 pupils on roll, Cambian Northampton School is among the smallest independent settings in West Northamptonshire. This mixed school takes pupils from age 11 and is inspected by the ISI rather than Ofsted. The intimate scale means a very high level of individual attention, and families considering it should expect a learning environment quite different from a mainstream secondary. Miss Leanne Dodds leads the school.
