Abbeyfield is not as bad as the reputation it's given
Bad attitude on pupils
My son has been having problems with his dance teacher call ms Adamson at school. She has been forcing him to answer questions even when he does not understand them, and she waited for him answer a question for 10 minutes. He feels that she is treating him unfairly and behaving in a rude manner towards him.
Worst school ever
School is terrible , bullying is rife and lots of videos during school of bullying bandied on Snapchat and tik tok . My child was assaulted sanction was a day in isolation ! Pulled my child out!
Never go to Abbeyfield School (Northampton)
This school is pure shit i reported for sexual assault for something he didn't do and he ended up getting in trouble this school needs better staff and better investigations all their investigations is just informing students and they believe the students and they possibly don't know if their lying or not so I DONT RECOMMEND ANYBODY TO COME TO THIS SCHOOL
The worst place ever
This school is awful.
The school doesn't follow procedure, Your child can be assaulted and nobody informs you. This has happened twice now. My child gets verbally abused daily by other students.
School is literally complicit in the bullying failing to inform parents.
Don't get me wrong there are staff who are lovely and i wish nothing but the best for them. But they are few.
Its not isolated to my child talking to my child's friends they are reguarly harassed by other students.
When child protective services even agrees the school poses a risk to your child's safety it says alot.

Many of the teachers are lovely if you behave.
Fights are pretty common but that's the same in every school. The fights are broken up pretty quickly and the children are taken to isolation or to talk to a teacher.
The only thing I can complain on is that some of the teachers aren't good at doing their job. This doesn't matter much for year 7, 8, or 9 but in year 10 and 11, it does.
I also think that there should be more places to spend break times that aren't in the refectory or on the playgrounds.
One other thing is that some teachers give out negative points like giving out sweets on Halloween, which is really annoying sometimes.
Overall, if you behave, you will find that abbeyfield isn't that bad. The badly behaved students will get in trouble often but in most instances, it is dealt with quickly.
