WELCOME TO HAYDON ABBEY SCHOOL AND PRE-SCHOOL

On behalf of all the staff and governors I would like to welcome you to Haydon Abbey School and Pre-School. Choosing the right school for your child is one of the most important decisions that you will make. We are committed to giving your child the best all-round education that we can. We set high expectations in terms of behaviour and attitudes to learning and these, together with our core values, are reinforced throughout the day in every aspect of school life. We want our children to leave the school having achieved their full potential in terms of their learning, but also to be happy, confident individuals ready to embark on the next stage of their education.

Haydon Abbey School has undergone considerable changes over the last few years resulting in an Ofsted rating of ‘Good’ in October 2014 and again more recently in July 2018.

“You have established a culture of high expectations.

Staff and pupils have worked well together to define the school’s values of ‘respect, honesty, resilience, cooperation and well-being’. Pupils live out these values fully in the school’s daily life. Consequently, pupils are polite, hard-working and helpful in their lessons and during playtimes. They enjoy learning, settle to work quickly and are keen to find out new things.” Ofsted 2018

Our school is at the heart of the local community and we value the relationships that we have with all of our stakeholders. School has also recently undergone some significant building work which includes a magnificent new hall. This has provided the school with lots of opportunities for events open to our families and the community.

Haydon Abbey School and Pre-School is an exciting and vibrant place to be where the education, safety and happiness of our children are central to everything that we do.

Our parents comment:

‘I am extremely pleased with the way in which my son has progressed’

‘My daughter has come on leaps and bounds’
