Welcome to Abingdon Preparatory School, a place where pupils and staff pursue and celebrate excellence in all its forms. True to the School's founding values, we provide a nurturing community in which boys gain in confidence and fulfil their potential. Our teaching is built upon traditional subject-specialist expertise, with small class sizes and we pride ourselves on care and attention of each individual. Whether it's preparation for Common Entrance and Scholarship examinations, or participation in Abingdon's famous 'Other Half', we foster a culture of exciting opportunity and seek to inspire a life-long love of learning.
I firmly believe in the importance of providing an enjoyable and excellent all-round education during the crucially formative preparatory school years. I am therefore delighted that the recent ISI inspection report (2011) affirmed that both Abingdon Prep and the Senior School deliver an outstanding education. I am aware, however, that no website or inspection report can do full justice to the unique ethos, atmosphere and excellent facilities of Abingdon Prep, so please do come and see us in action.
I look forward to welcoming you.
