What do others think of Amesbury?
Read what the Good Schools Guide says by clicking on the logo .
“A warm, traditional and supportive preparatory school that values the individual and offers a more gentle start than some of the local competition, while still producing successful, well-rounded children. ‘In terms of where to park children until 13, it’s pretty idyllic,’ said one parent.
