Senior Curriculum
At Abbotsholme, we aim to inspire a lifelong love of learning by nurturing inquisitive minds and recognising the unique talents of every pupil. Within the classroom, pupils are encouraged to strive for their best, challenge themselves, and embrace learning from their mistakes. We promote resilience, supporting pupils as they push beyond their comfort zones and grow in confidence.
Our small class sizes and specialist teachers ensure high levels of individual attention, enabling strong rapport and a personalised approach to learning. Lessons are delivered in engaging and varied ways to suit different learning styles, with clear steps for improvement provided at every stage. We also harness technology to enhance teaching and support effective, modern learning.
Abbotsholme offers a warm, supportive environment where every pupil is empowered to flourish academically and personally.
Curriculum
The curriculum in Senior School not only develops key skills but also broadens horizons. As pupils progress through school, their pathways are tailored to ensure maximum success for their future. Our Learning Skills team provides additional support and challenges pupils at every stage of their learning and development.
We celebrate the strengths and individuality of each pupil, harness their abilities, and allow them to flourish. Our goal is to foster a lifelong love of learning, believing that pupils learn best when they are happy and actively engaged in their education. Our teachers inspire this love of learning and cultivate curiosity.
A vital aspect of our nurturing approach is providing the right level of challenge. We instil confidence in our pupils, encouraging them to be ambitious, determined, and independent as they discover their potential. Rather than pushing our pupils, we guide them to drive their own learning.
Our academic programme promotes challenge through innovative and creative lessons, aiming to inspire self-reliance and a growth mindset. Resilience and self-confidence are developed by dedicated and enthusiastic teachers who create a supportive learning environment that challenges each pupil’s academic and personal growth.
At Abbotsholme, pupils become independent, inquisitive, and work enthusiastically toward achieving their goals.
