    We are proud to share with you all that St Edmund's has recently been re-awarded its Quality Mark Accreditation.

    The Quality Mark Award promotes, supports and celebrates progress and improvements made by a school in English and Mathematics. To achieve a Quality Mark, schools have to undergo an assessment by an external accredited assessor against 10 'elements' of the Quality Mark framework. These cover key aspects of the school's improvement plan, including the identifications and analysis of the school's needs; strategic planning, target setting for improvement; intervention and support for pupils underachieving or under-attaining; provision of quality in both teaching and resources; staff development; and active engagement with families. Effective monitoring and evaluation are also required - particularly to achieve renewal.

    This award highlights just some of the fantastic work in St Edmund's, and we should all be delighted that this has been recognised.

    A huge well done to the whole St Edmund's family!

  • 'Dream Believe and Succeed'

    Published 12/01/22

    Earlier this week, children from Year 4, 5 and 6 were invited to attend a very special theatre production at the Millfield Theatre. 

    The production was an exciting opportunity for children to see a live performance from the 'Dream Believe, Succeed' project, which is funded by the Mayor's Young Londoners Fund. The show was filled with amazing singing and incredible choreography, as pupils watched the story of well-known fairytale characters embark on a journey of fitting in, creating friendships and making right choices. 

    It was a fantastic treat and great way to start the new term. All 130 children who attended loved the experience and represented the school brilliantly. Great work everyone!

    Here are a few quotes of what children thought of the show:

    "I absolutely loved it. It was very funny!"

    "The music was great, I just wanted to start dancing!"

    "The dancing was cool, they were very good dancers!"

    "I had never been the theatre before. It was good fun, and hopefully we can go again."
