We hope that the website provides you with a good introduction to Abingdon and the virtual tour will give you a taste of some of our facilities, but there is nothing quite like actually being here to really appreciate our school and the unique atmosphere that is Abingdon.
We have a range of opportunities for parents and students to visit – please see details below. At all of these there will be an opportunity to find out more about our move to co-education.

Events for parents
Discover Abingdon Open Mornings
Our Discover Abingdon events are mini open mornings for parents whose child is looking to join Abingdon in the next few years. These events are intended to be for parents only and involve a tour of the school, an address and Q&A session with the Head and senior staff from our academic, pastoral and admissions departments.
Inside Abingdon
Come and join us for a tour of the school followed by an informal chat with the Admissions team and a member of the senior academic or pastoral team over coffee. These events are a great opportunity to find out more about your specific year of entry, our plans to welcome girls and to ask any specific questions you may have. To keep these events small and personal, we restrict places to six families.
Private appointments
The appointments include a meeting with the Head of Admissions and a tour of the school. They can be in person events at school or they can take place over Zoom or the telephone.
Priority will be given to families looking for the next entry point.
