Nestled in the scenic Clover Hill District of St. Ann, Camperdown Primary and Infant School has been a beacon of educational excellence since 1971. What makes our institution truly unique is our distinctive blend of deep-rural roots and an urban mindset that prepares our students for success in an increasingly connected world.
As a multigrade school, we are committed to the holistic development of every child in our care, regardless of their starting point. Under the leadership of Principal Duval Ebanks and Vice Principal Tameka Johns, our dedicated team has cultivated a reputation for academic excellence and strong civic values, often serving as a critical feeder for Jamaica's most prestigious high schools. Our students consistently excel in literacy, numeracy, and cutting-edge digital technologies including coding.
What truly sets Camperdown apart is our vibrant school culture that emphasizes character development and community integration. Despite resource constraints that many rural schools face, we have created a nurturing, inclusive environment that gets it right for every child. Our legacy of producing well-rounded students who become leaders and professionals has established us as a cornerstone of the St. Ann community.
Guided by our motto 'Only the Best IS Good Enough,' we continue to serve as a reliable foundation for Jamaica's future, proving that excellence knows no geographical boundaries.
