ABDO College

There for the open garden, loved it

The ABDO College in Godmersham Park, was previously the home of Edward Knight, Jane Austen's brother and she regularly visited it between 1798 and 1813. Indeed her novel, Mansfield Park is said to be based on it. It is a Grade 1 listed building.

My entire experience at ABDO college was amazing. I have just completed my first block and was previously unsure of how it was going to be, having had a bad experience at 6th form. Fortunately, all my worries went whilst there, the staff are fantastic, from all the lectureres to Mel the dinner lady, who's cooking is delicious. Hayden's lectures are hilarious, Adam, Si and Simon were really helpful in answering all my questions of which I had lots! Katie, Gill and Jo were also really approachable and Sally went above and beyond with helping me with my queries both to do with the course and exams, but also things to help with my dispensing in practice! My fellow students were also super friendly and I have made good friends too. Thank you everybody, can't wait till March and also sorry about all the questions! You've ALL really helped me!
