Welcome to County Upper

County Upper Campus

Success at the Bury St Edmunds All-Through Trust 13-18 County Campus is built on a strong partnership between teachers, parents, students and governors; a partnership which flourishes in an atmosphere of mutual trust and respect, where every individual is known and valued.

You can find out more about our values and work in our prospectus and brochure.

We are very proud that our young people feel secure and happy and enjoy coming to school and that our "can do" attitude ensures that our students achieve excellent results at all levels of ability: results which reflect, and frequently exceed, their potential.

Going All-Through
This is a time of great change in education nationally. While other schools locally are adjusting to their recent move to a two-tier system, our schools are already established and very confident with the forward looking All-Through system. As a result, all the schools in our Trust are able to focus solely on our core mission of helping every pupil to reach his or her potential by providing a seamless education from 4-19.

Any child in Year 4 who is not already in our system can choose to move into the All-Through Trust. Indeed, parents with children of all ages are very welcome to attend one of our open events and/or to have an individual tour. To find out what you need to do and how to get an application form visit the admissions page.

If you would like any of the information on this web site in printed form please contact us. We make no charge for this.

Life in lockdown

When I first heard we were going into lockdown “whoop whoop” was my first reaction, but then I thought arghhh…. as I felt the worry of losing lots of time to study for our upcoming exams in the summer. The next thing to happen was that we heard that all our exams would be cancelled... continued in the April Accolade

English work

Well done to all these students who have been selected by their teachers for inclusion in this month’s Accolade. All have been chosen because their work has been especially good for them and reflects the considerable time, effort and care that has gone into producing it.
