  • Exceptional Achievement

    Wed 24 Jan 2024

    Truly amazing!

    In the 2023 Year 1 Phonics Screening Check, 97% of pupils at Abel Smith School achieved the expected standard. This means we are among the top 3% of all primary schools in the country.

     

    We LOVE reading at Abel Smith School and developing lifelong readers. Congratulations to the whole school community - children, teachers and parents for your hard work and effort.

    Abel Smith Pizza at home Night - Friday 18th November 2022
    Don’t forget to order your delicious fresh pizza and cookie kits by Saturday 12 November for delivery to school on Friday 18th November to join in with ABEL SMITH PIZZA AT HOME NIGHT.

    The school will receive a percentage for every kit sold so this is a great way to help raise funds AND enjoy a fun night at home baking fresh pizzas and cookies!

    Simply order and pay for your pizza here https://doughies.co.uk/products/abel by Saturday 12th November.

    • 12" pizza kits are £6.50 each - add pepperoni as an extra. Vegan kits (dairy free) are available but sorry, no gluten free as the dough is too gloopy.
    • Cookie kits are £4.50 each - choose from chocolate chip, chocolate brownie or oat & raisin.

    Please encourage friends and family to order too!

    The fine print

    The fresh kits will be delivered to school on 18th November - if you order two or three kits, these will be combined to minimise packaging waste.
    Please order in the name of your eldest child and collect from the following places:

    • Nursery & Reception - Rooks Alley entrance
    • Year 1 to Year 6 - Main School Playground
  • WE DID IT! Sportsmark Gold Award 2021/2022

    Thu 19 May 2022

    We are delighted to announce that we have achieved the School Games Gold Mark Award for the 2021/22 academic year. The 5th Year in a row!
     
    The School Games Mark is a Government-led award scheme launched in
    2012, facilitated by the Youth Sport Trust to reward and recognise school’s engagement (provision and uptake) in the School Games against a national benchmark and to celebrate keeping young people active, and we are delighted to have been recognised for our success.

     

    Thank you to the school community for embracing all things active!
