George Abbot School

George Abbot School is a forward thinking academy providing an inclusive education, for around 2,000 young people, aged 11-18. We are located in Burpham, Guildford with good transport links to the surrounding area.

We have a highly skilled and motivated staff team and, as a school, are constantly seeking to refine our teaching practice. This means that our students benefit from an exceptional learning experience. We are part of a network of successful schools and are able to provide Initial Teacher Training and deliver the Early Career Framework programme to early career teachers across Surrey. We prioritise the provision of highest quality continuing professional development for all teaching and support staff.

We are proud of our excellent resources and have great facilities for sport, visual and performing arts, ICT, as well as a range of well equipped science labs and general classrooms. We remain ambitious and continually seek ways to improve the school environment.

We are a member of the Learning Partners Academy Trust and work closely with a number of partner schools, not only within the trust but nationally.

Ofsted (December 2019) said: “Pupils happily attend George Abbot School. They respect their teachers and behave well in lessons. Pupils take their studying seriously and try to get the most out of their experiences at school. Teachers expect a lot from pupils.”
