Year groups

Whilst many girls join the Junior School in Preparatory (Year 1) after their Reception year in The Abbey Early Years Centre, new pupils enter into many year groups. As a result the Junior School is very good at helping new girls to settle in very quickly. There are two forms in Preparatory and Transition (Year 2), and we expand to three forms per year group for Key Stage 2 (Years 3 - 6).  

Each year group has form tutors who are experts in their age group and who teach girls for most subjects, working alongside the Specialist teachers. We hope these pages give you a good insight into the year group which most interests you (as well as providing a useful guide to the traditional year group names that we use at The Abbey!)
