STUDENT SUPPORT

Studying in the UK is an exciting prospect, but might make you a little nervous too. It means leaving your family to start a new life in an unfamiliar country. As experts in teaching and supporting international students, we know that the first thing we have to build is a strong and supportive college community. To succeed in your studies you first need to feel welcome, comfortable and safe.

SUBJECT SELECTION

Our A Level students will typically study four subjects in their first year, you can then choose to continue with these four in year two, or drop down to three subjects. We offer a range of subjects, with particular strengths in Mathematics, Sciences, Business, Economics and Humanities. The combination of subjects you choose will influence the university courses you will be able to apply for.

ABBEY HOUSES

Our college community is made up of eight houses, with each member of the school (Staff and students) becoming a member of a house. Abbey houses are all to do with pride, friendship, team spirit, and competition. The passion a student develops for their house is at the core of our outstanding pastoral care.

PERSONAL TUITION

Your personal tutor will be an experienced member of our teaching staff, who will provide support throughout your studies. You’ll meet with them daily as part of your tutor group, and then weekly and termly for in-depth personal guidance and feedback sessions.

ABBEY INSPIRES

We run weekly ‘Abbey Inspires’ academic evening lectures and workshops, where students can learn more about and explore topics related to their subjects that aren’t covered by the traditional syllabus. Having this higher level knowledge provides you with a real advantage when it comes to making your university application.
