St Edward's Prospectus 2024

School Life Teddies is well known for its friendliness and the strong bonds between pupils of all year groups, and between staff and pupils. At around 810 pupils, St Edward’s is big enough to be a lively community, with endless opportunities, but small enough for pupils’ voices to be heard, and for them to know most of their fellow pupils. Pastoral care is outstanding. From the moment they join the School, pupils are made aware of the wide network of support available to them. In House, Housemasters and Housemistresses, Tutors, Matrons, Heads of House and Sixth Form Peer Listeners are on hand to help. Elsewhere, the Pastoral and Welfare Deputy Heads, the Director of Safeguarding, the Director of Wellbeing, the School Psychologist, the School Counsellor and the Chaplaincy team play important roles in pupil welfare, as do Prefects, House Nurses, the School Doctor and the Health Centre team. Designated Safeguarding Governors and staff are closely involved in making sure that our pupils are safe and happy.
