Bruern Abbey Senior School is your leading senior school in Buckinghamshire, offering a highly personalised approach to secondary education for pupils with learning difficulties. Set in a peaceful pastoral environment, our school provides our pupils a supportive and structured setting where every pupil is valued as an individual.
At our secondary school, we recognise that no two pupils learn the same way. Our small class sizes allow us to deliver tailored teaching and specialist special education needs support (SEND), helping each pupil build confidence, independence, and resilience throughout their educational journey.
GCSE Support at Our Senior School
Starting your GCSEs can be both challenging and transformative. Since we first opened our doors in 2022, we have quickly established ourselves as not just a supportive senior school, but also a successful one. This is showcased by our fantastic GCSE results and the prestigious sixth forms and colleges that our students have gone on to join. You can view them here.
What Success Means to Us
Success has no single definition at Bruern Abbey. Instead, we look to our students and the specific challenges they face to create and set achievable goals. Pupils are encouraged to explore their interests, develop their strengths, and grow confidence within a nurturing and purposeful community. We encourage our students to actively participate in setting their own goals and achieving them.
Transition to Co-Education
Our dedication to providing a specialised educational environment is soon to be expanded. Starting in 2027, Bruern Abbey’s senior school will be opening its doors to girls as well as boys.
A Personalised Approach to Secondary Education
At Bruern Abbey’s senior school, we know that pupils do their best when they are understood as individuals and are encouraged to be themselves. We champion difference, recognising that no two pupils learn, think or develop in the same way, and our size means we can take a truly individual approach.
