Abbotsholme Admissions

A Special Commitment to Families Affected by the Closure of Abbotsholme School

We understand that the closure of a school creates uncertainty for pupils and families alike. During this challenging period, our priority is to provide stability, continuity and opportunity for every girl.

To support families affected by the closure of Abbotsholme School, Adcote School for Girls is pleased to offer:

Complimentary Boarding Until the End of Your Daughter’s Current Key Stage

Girls joining Adcote from Abbotsholme School will be eligible for free boarding while paying standard day fees, for the remainder of the Key Stage they are currently studying.

This offer provides families with additional flexibility and allows girls to benefit from the full Adcote experience, including:

  • A supportive and welcoming boarding community
  • Supervised evening study and academic support
  • Access to co-curricular activities and enrichment opportunities
  • Strong pastoral care throughout the school week
  • The opportunity to build friendships and confidence during a period of transition

Whether families choose occasional boarding, weekly boarding or a fuller boarding experience, our aim is to make the move to Adcote as smooth and positive as possible.

Our Admissions Team will be happy to discuss individual circumstances and explain how this offer applies to your daughter’s year group.
