Abbotsholme Junior Department - bringing lessons to life

Learning is brought to life in the Junior Department through a practical, hands-on approach and where effort and achievement are recognized, celebrated and recorded.

The curriculum is broad and balanced and delivered in small classes by a team of dedicated staff, who are dynamic and innovative in their approach to the development of enquiring young minds. Whilst the school operates within an ethos of high expectation all work is appropriately differentiated according to individual ability and learning styles to ensure that everyone’s potential is maximized.

The children have access to the senior school’s rich and stimulating surroundings during their formative years providing wonderful opportunities for learning.

Reception class through to Year 6 is situated in Oakholme, our central teaching area.  While other classes have mixed year groups, Year 6 will continue to run independently as part of the older children’s preparation for transition to senior school.

People On Abbotsholme



‘I like lots of things about my school. We’re always learning something new and usually we have great fun doing it. Recently we watched 10,000 young salmon being put into the River Dove and learned about their life cycle – we were even interviewed on TV! We’ve just finished a project on the Tudors when we turned part of our classroom into a Tudor house. I like spending time at the stables and really loved seeing the new lambs being born on the farm. After school club is good too; on one day I am having tennis lessons with a coach who comes into school and my best friend is learning to play the saxophone. It doesn’t feel like learning……..’
