Abingdon has justifiably enjoyed a strong reputation for science for at least the past half century. The science department has been able to provide the stimulating and effective teaching in science sought by parents who themselves are scientists or applied scientists working in one of the many science or technology based organisations which has grown up in the dayboy catchment area.
Because of the strong parental interest in science, Abingdon is an excellent centre in which to teach science and the school has been most fortunate in attracting a well qualified and enthusiastic team of physics, chemistry and biology teachers and support staff. The size of the science department and the number of laboratories and ancillary rooms has grown steadily to meet the increasing dmand for a high quality scientific education.
