Abbot's Hill School is an independent day school welcoming pupils aged between 6 months and 16 years. Registered as a single-sex school for female pupils, it also welcomes boys in the Early Years Foundation Stage. Founded in 1912 as a Church of England boarding school for girls, it later became a day school and now comprises a co-educational nursery and pre-school, a girls' prep school, and a girls' senior school, all on a single site. The school is run by a non-profit making charitable trust. The school's vision is to develop happy, self-assured, compassionate young people, expertly prepared to face the world through a relevant, ambitious and inclusive curriculum. Pupils come from a range of professional backgrounds, with the majority living within a 10-mile radius of the school. The school identifies and supports pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities, including dyslexia and dyspraxia, ensuring all receive additional specialist help. The curriculum is also modified for the most able pupils and for those with special talents across a variety of subjects and interests.

Pupils hand in mobile phones at the start of the day and these are kept securely until they are collected at the end of the day
