The Charter School Bermondsey is a 600 place free school for pupils aged 11-16. Formerly Compass School Southwark, we opened in September 2013 to provide an outstanding education for local families.
The school is a new member of The Charter Schools Educational Trust; home to seven Good and Outstanding schools including The Charter School North Dulwich, The Charter School East Dulwich & Charles Dickens Primary School.
Through our schools, nurseries and sixth forms, our trust improves all children and young people’s lives, now and in the long term.

Collaboration is deep-rooted in our culture as we recognise that we are all responsible for all the children and young people across our family of schools and that only together will we be able to give them the best educational experiences and a better future.
