Welcome
"A good school"  
  
2012

Abbeyfield School was founded at the start of this century and since then much has changed, however the essence of school life and drive for achievement has remained. This was echoed by one of Her Majesty’s Inspectors who said there is an “emphasis on securing high quality teaching and learning across the school”.
We are now proud to be one of the best schools in Wiltshire for our GCSE exam results and the top comprehensive in the county for GCSE mathematics. Our A-Level results continue to be strong with many students moving into our Sixth Form, which continues to grow in number and in the variety of academic courses on offer.
Our teachers have very high expectations and in our House assemblies I have laid down the challenge to all students to be the very best they can be for themselves, their year group, their House and our school.  Abbeyfield was judged by Ofsted to provide a "good education" and we are now working hard to become "outstanding".
 
This website provides a range of information including a link to our weekly A Star bulletin. I hope you find it interesting and helpful. If you would like to visit the school then please make an appointment and we will make you most welcome.

Our Core Values

We aim to serve our community by pursuing excellence in everything we do in order to provide an education of the highest quality.
 
Our seven principles below align with many of the Christian values that underpin our society today. These will be promoted through the experience we offer to all our pupils.
  1. Kindness & Compassion - to have goodwill and concern for the welfare and beliefs of everyone
  2. Courage - to stand up for yourself and others
  3. Truthfulness - to behave with integrity at all times
  4. Service - to put selfish things aside for the needs of others
  5. Leadership - to have the confidence to lead
  6. Open-mindedness - to question and to think
  7. Independence - to be prepared fully for life after school
Our values are listed in order to make explicit what is already implicit, to communicate what is important and to provide a foundation for further action. Values such as these influence behaviour and action. They also have the capacity to inspire and encourage. This is the statement from which all other documents flow, including the school’s (and partnership’s) Statement of Aims.
