Cameron Vale School
London, Kensington and Chelsea, Greater London · SW3 6AH
Cameron Vale is a small independent school in the heart of Kensington and Chelsea, with around 50 pupils across an unusually broad age range that begins in the very early years and runs to age 11. Its size is central to its character: with so few children on roll, pupils are known as individuals rather than numbers. The Independent Schools Inspectorate awarded the school its highest grade of "excellent" for both education quality and personal development, and judged it fully compliant on regulatory standards. Led by Headmistress Alison Melrose, it suits families seeking a close-knit, well-supervised environment within central London.
