“Battle Abbey School is an independent School in East Sussex which is extraordinarily special. A glimpse through its enchanting gatehouse tells you that you are not only in a historically significant setting, but also in a school that has an incomparable character and sense of community. Battle Abbey’s ideal size, much lauded pastoral care, idyllic location, continuity of education from Nursery to Sixth Form, allied to its friendly and highly supportive working environment make for a very inclusive and unique School.”
“As a parent myself I know how important it is for our children to feel happy and supported at School so they can grow and flourish. Pupils very quickly feel at home here as everyone is so welcoming and friendly. The family ethos and school values of Belonging, Aspiration and Service thread through everything we do and enables pupils to make the most of all the opportunities provided.”
“At Battle Abbey School we blend traditional values to new, innovative thinking in teaching and learning. Our inspiring curriculum supports pupils to excel academically and socially. We have developed an enviable reputation for adding value academically in a mixed ability setting. The progress of pupils is monitored closely by academic and pastoral mentors to ensure they all reach their full potential. The majority of our leavers go on to their first-choice destinations of university, apprenticeships or employment. Just under 30% of our Sixth Form students go on to Russell Group Universities and about 10% of our Sixth Form students go on to Oxford or Cambridge.”
“Battle Abbey’s ethos is highly distinctive and focuses on nurturing a close-knit family atmosphere, encouraging active participation from its students, promoting an international perspective through its boarders and encouraging self-respect. Battle Abbey pupils are easy to pick out for their confidence, dedication and kindness. We strive to inspire our pupils to be compassionate leaders and global citizens who want to go on to make the World a better place.
I very much hope that this website gives you a flavour of our School and I would urge you to come to visit us to meet our engaging and talented students and staff.”
