"Good, but some communication issues"

We like George Abbot as a school and our child is happy there. However, we have experienced some issues with communication from the school, particularly regarding homework and school events. We hope this will improve as the year goes on.

"Helped my children grow into confident individuals"

I have fond memories of my children's time at George Abbot. The school provided a safe and nurturing environment that allowed them to flourish. The pastoral care was excellent, and the staff went above and beyond to support them. I couldn't be prouder of the people they have become.
