Welcome to Waverley Abbey. We hope that our website gives you all the information you need about our school. At Waverley Abbey, we believe that all God's children are unique and special. Our curriculum builds on this. It is broad, balanced and offers rich learning opportunities which enable our children to thrive.
We want our children to leave us having developed a strong sense of themselves both as learners and as members of the wider community. Values such as hope, courage and kindness are central to all we do. We aim to teach children to love challenges, be intrigued by mistakes and keep on learning using a positive growth mindset.
Children of all faiths are welcomed into the Waverley Abbey Family. We are the hub of a unique community and are very proud of it. Do contact the school office on 01252 782321 or email to arrange a visit. We look forward to meeting you and welcoming you at Waverley Abbey.
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11
