Description
Abbeywood School is Independent Secondary school in Not applicable for kids aged 10 to 18 (Gender - 10 to 18 )
The school vision drives all that we seek to do on a daily basis and is therefore of central importance to help guide us in how they work, learn and treat one another in the school community. They aim to deliver brilliance in everything that we do and have the highest of expectations for all our students. The highly skilled staff and teachers are experienced educators and have created a nurturing environment, where every child is challenged to achieve their full potential. They believe passionately in developing the students into successful and resilient learners, who are confident, courteous, responsible and well-informed young people. This is a part of being an Abbeywood student and we develop these personal qualities through every interaction in school and through the Character Education and enrichment programme. They believe these skills are critical to ensure that our young people are prepared to thrive beyond school in whatever path they choose.

Curriculum
Learning is personalised to meet the full age and ability range and there are two ‘pathway’ processes in Years 9 and 11 when students select their academic route and options linked to their skills, interests and future ambitions.Students are taught either as mixed ability or set groups, depending on the subject and the year. By being flexible in our grouping arrangements, students can move between groups as they make progress.Despite a changing landscape in terms of educational provision and Government directive, we remain committed to providing a school experience that parents and students will recognise but also one that will prepare students for life in the 21st Century. The enrichment curriculum in Year 7&8 is central to this pulling together key learning opportunities from a number of subjects and offering students the chance to develop their skills as learners, team players while reflecting on how we think and learn.
