Abbotsholme - an education for life
 

Welcome to Abbotsholme,
Leading private boarding and day school in the heart of England

Our site is intended to reflect who we are and what we are up to today, this week, this term, so quite a bit of the information displayed will be updated on a regular basis. It is also an evolving site so you might like to add it to your ‘favourites’ folder and access it regularly to see new additions.

To help you navigate around the site here are a few pointers:

Background – we hope you can take the time to read a little about the History of Abbotsholme private boarding and day school. Dr Cecil Reddie, our founder, was a fascinating man, who was ahead of his time in so many ways. To understand our Philosophy is to understand what we aim to achieve here at Abbotsholme School. Our internationalism is reflected in our membership of the Round Square organisation.

School Life – take a look at our daily routine and find out more about what goes on both in the classroom (Academic Programme) and beyond it. This section includes details about our renowned Outdoor Education department, how we are involved on the Farm and the Equestrian Centre, what Sport we play and how we develop Creative expression.

Our Community – Find out some more about our Juniors, Seniors and Sixth Form, take a look at what's in store for our day, flexi, weekly and full Boarders. Learn a bit about The Abbotsholmians' Club and see what the Parents' Association gets up to. There's also a Who's Who section to help you with who does what on the staff team.

Information – here you will find a host of details on Term Dates, Curriculum content, Admissions and Entrance Procedures, Scholarships and Bursaries and Fees.

News - any articles that we write will appear in this section, listed by term for ease of use.

Headmaster's Welcome

At Abbotsholme, we are passionate about providing a rounded education where every individual matters. Abbotsholmians are self-confident individuals, willing to take on new challenges and to run the risk of failure in order to achieve true success. Abbotsholmians are not followers but future leaders.

Our pupils are the dynamic, exciting part of the school, and I am very proud of them. They are by far the best part of Abbotsholme and surpass even the beautiful school estate on the banks of the River Dove, and the fantastic facilities that you will read about on our website and in our prospectus...
