Welcome from the Headteacher
- Serving the community for over 50 years.
Abington
High School is a very popular high achieving school, based in and
committed to the community. Our distinctive school badge
links the school to Wigston Magna representing as it does the steeples
of All Saints and St. Wolston's Churches, recalling the town's former
name of "Wigston of two steeples". We are extremely proud of our links
with the local community, both in the past and in the present; the
history of the school being able to be traced back to at least 1934,
moving to its present site in 1954 and opening officially in 1957.
The most important priority of the school is to provide the highest
quality education for every child within a safe, caring and orderly
environment. To this end we are committed to meeting the needs of
children by working in partnership with parents and by providing a
wealth of experience and opportunities to encourage every child to
achieve their full potential, be confident, responsible, independent and
well educated individuals able to fulfil positive roles in society and
to have a successful future. Our aspirations for the children are aptly
summarised in our school motto "Strive to Succeed".
Everyone at Abington makes every effort to provide each child with the
necessary care and support so that they feel safe, happy and be
successful. As stated by Government Inspectors, Abington is a “caring
school in which pupils are enabled to mature and grow in self confidence
as individuals” where committed and experienced “teachers set high
standards” and “attainment improves markedly as the children progress
through the school”.
We welcome your
comments and any parental requests to visit and tour the school.
