I love working at Milton Abbey. I have the freedom and creativity to keep exploring and becoming more passionate about my subject, which helps me pass that passion on to my pupils. MILTON ABBEY SCHOOL TEACHER
A lot of us get some extra help with our learning. It’s never judgmental - other pupils don’t comment whether or not you get extra learning development support. LOWER SCHOOL PUPIL
We give each pupil the time and support to enjoy sport - in classes, competitively and recreationally. We can help them excel in a sport they already love or give them the confidence to find a sporting talent they didn’t even know they had! BEN LAWES | DIRECTOR OF SPORT
The depth and breadth of our outstanding co-curricular programme enables pupils to have positive life-changing experiences. These experiences develop confidence, skills and passions that help our pupils lead successful, fulfilling and happier lives. WILL FRASER | DEPUTY HEAD (CO-CURRICULAR)

Teachers take a personal approach to our learning and also encourage us to be more self-motivated. LOWER SCHOOL PUPIL
Milton Abbey has been the making of our son. From the teachers and the Boarding House team, to the friends he has made for life. It truly is a fantastic school. PARENTS OF A LOWER SCHOOL PUPIL
You have to come and visit. Feel what it’s like to come down the driveway and to meet our pupils. The pupils are, without a doubt, our best ambassadors in showing what the school is all about. JAMES WATSON | SENIOR DEPUTY HEAD
The school has a good mixture of people from different backgrounds and cultures. We love its diversity and uniqueness, the small classes, and the big experiences and opportunities to be had. PARENTS OF AN INTERNATIONAL STUDENT
It’s like you have two homes. Your home with your family and your home here at school. LOWER SCHOOL PUPIL
It’s a beautiful place to play sports. I love getting to learn and play outdoors and it’s great to be part of the school teams. SIXTH FORM STUDENT
Milton Abbey has brought out the ‘inner me’ that’s more confident. Before I started here I was quite shy. LOWER SCHOOL PUPIL
It’s not just about lessons, it’s the whole atmosphere of the school. The size of the school helps us mingle and improves relationships between everyone. There’s always something to do or someone to see - you’re never bored! SIXTH FORM STUDENT
Milton Abbey is a truly nurturing environment, whether you are a boarding or day pupil. We provide exactly the right balance of support and challenge, of stability and durability, and of care and confidence-building. CHRIS BARNES | DEPUTY HEAD (PASTORAL)
We are completely overwhelmed with our son’s GCSE results. We never dreamed he would achieve so much. This will translate into a belief that he can achieve whatever he wants with a positive mindset and hard work. PARENTS OF A LOWER SCHOOL PUPIL
Getting the best out of a pupil, however they prefer to learn. Building curiosity, creativity and critical analysis not just an ability to recite facts. That’s what it means to learn differently. CLAUDIA HINDLE | DEPUTY HEAD (ACADEMIC)
Milton Abbey is special. It’s definitely a learning environment that’s different to every other school I’ve visited. I love the unique relationships I have with my teachers and that I can study such different subjects at the same time. SIXTH FORM STUDENT
Our son arrived at Milton Abbey having seriously underperformed at GCSE and left with a love of learning, great confidence and five university offers. PARENTS OF A SIXTH FORM LEAVER
