South Camden Community School

South Camden Community School

Regent High School (RHS), formerly South Camden Community School (SCCS), is a co-educational comprehensive secondary school in Somers Town, in the London Borough of Camden, England. The name was changed in 2012 in an attempt to shed what staff feared was a "negative perception" of the school rooted in its past. Formerly, from 1951, it was known as Sir William Collins Secondary School for boys only. Since 2011 the school has been involved in an extensive rebuilding and refurbishment programme which will be completed in 2013. The school's accreditations include Healthy Schools, Sportmark, Leading Parent Partnership award and International Schools status. The last Ofsted inspection for SCCS published in July 2011 rated the school as 'satisfactory'.

Famous quotes containing the words south, community and/or school:

    Biography is a very definite region bounded on the north by history, on the south by fiction, on the east by obituary, and on the west by tedium.
    Philip Guedalla (1889–1944)

    When you have come into the land that the LORD your God is giving you, and have taken possession of it and settled in it, and you say, “I will set a king over me, like all the nations that are around me,” you may indeed set over you a king whom the LORD your God will choose. One of your own community you may set as king over you; you are not permitted to put a foreigner over you, who is not of your own community.
    Bible: Hebrew, Deuteronomy 17:14,15.

    In the first place God made idiots. This was for practice. Then He made School Boards.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
