“Encouraging”, “progressive”,
“creative”, “a home from home”...
… just some of the descriptions of St Edmund’s from the mouths of pupils that study here.
We are so very proud of our reputation as a school at which pupils relish not just their
opportunities, but their day-to-day lives too. Self-confidence, assured social skills and a mature
awareness of the nuts and bolts of life and the relationships we form within it are at the very
heart of everything we do. We are a school committed to producing happy and successful pupils
in a nurturing and fun, but suitably challenging environment and it’s this that makes us stand
out from the educational crowd.
Informed by caring Christian principles, our aim is to build a solid foundation in the lives of
the pupils that we nurture in order that when they spread their wings, they do so not just with
a high level of education, but with the capacity to develop compassionate and decent human
relationships throughout their adult lives.
And, if we’re doing it right, which we have every confidence that we are, it shines through in the
happiness and personal development of pupils like Kate – there is no greater seal of approval
than that.
Pupil numbers have been growing
over the last five years, which is a
wonderful culmination of the hard work
that everyone at St Edmund’s has put
in over the last half decade. A new
school building with bright and exciting
classrooms means that our facilities will
move forward in line with the vibrant and
intellectually curious pupils they nurture.”
