Welcome
Finding the right school for your child is one of the most important decisions you’ll make as a parent. We understand that choosing an independent education represents a significant investment in your child’s future, and we’re here to help you discover whether our school community is the perfect fit for your family. We are, therefore, delighted that you are considering Abbot’s Hill School for your child.
Your Child’s Journey Starts Here
At Abbot’s Hill, we believe every child has unique talents waiting to be discovered and nurtured. Our admissions process is designed to understand your child as an individual – their interests, learning style, and aspirations – so we can show you exactly how they would thrive in our supportive and challenging environment.
We pride ourselves on maintaining a welcoming, inclusive community where academic excellence goes hand in hand with personal development. Our pupils don’t just achieve outstanding results; they develop the confidence, creativity, and character that will serve them throughout their lives.
The usual entry points to our school are:
- Reception (4+)
- Year 3 (7+)
- Year 7 (11+)
- Year 9 (13+).
We sometimes have occasional places in other year groups and are happy to receive an application for a prospective pupil at any stage. Some year groups have a waiting list.
