"Exceptional school with excellent values"

My children were at Waverley Abbey for 7 years and I couldn't be more grateful for the education and experiences they received. The school's values of love and compassion for one another are truly at the heart of everything they do. My kids thrived in the supportive and inclusive environment, making lifelong friends and developing a strong sense of self.

"Wonderful school with a strong sense of community"

We've been at Waverley Abbey for 2 years now and I've been consistently impressed by the school's commitment to providing a well-rounded education. The facilities are excellent, with a fantastic pool and forest school area that my child loves. The teachers are kind and supportive, and the staff are always willing to listen and help.

"Some strengths, some areas for improvement"

I've been pleased with the progress my child has made at Waverley Abbey, particularly in their academic achievements. However, I've noticed that the school could do more to engage with parents, particularly at the start of the year. Communication could be better, and some parents might find the school's values a bit too focused on Christianity.
