CO-EDUCATION AND INCLUSION AT TEDDIES

As you join St Edward’s, we celebrate 40 years since the first girls were welcomed to the Sixth Form and our 25-year anniversary of becoming fully co-ed. We are very proud of our history and success in providing first class education equally to girls and boys, with mixed Houses, mixed sport and above all an environment where girls and boys learn how to live and work together and make friends for life. Inclusion is a fundamental part of the ethos of St Edward’s where all people are valued and diversity is celebrated. We teach pupils the benefits of welcoming difference and do not tolerate unkindness or prejudice in any form. Pupil voice is really important.

Pupils bring their views and passion to this area through the Equality, Diversity and

Inclusion Committee, through FemSoc and through other forums, such as assemblies and within Houses.
