We are a YST Lead Inclusion School
At Abbey School, we believe every child deserves the chance to shine. That’s why we’re proud to be a Lead Inclusion School with the Youth Sport Trust. This means we’re at the forefront of creating opportunities for all children—whatever their ability or background—to enjoy, achieve, and feel part of something special through sport and physical activity. From inclusive PE lessons to exciting leadership roles, we make sure every student can take part, build confidence, and discover their potential. Being a Lead Inclusion School isn’t just a badge—it’s our promise to celebrate diversity and make sport a positive experience for every child. Bringing Believe, Belonging and Butterflies to Life.
