School Trust Fund

Help us to enhance the school environment and support the wellbeing of all members of our school community

The School Trust Fund is a Registered Charity and contributes financially to school life. King Edward VI School, Lichfield has a long history and a beautiful location to be proud of, but the need to ask the Trust Fund for support has increased in recent times owing to an overstretched budget and the rising costs of a growing school. We need your support for the Trust Fund to be able to provide the facilities that our students deserve.

Our priority is to protect the curriculum and extra curricular opportunities for our students. We need your help to improve the environment and its potential for all our students which can have a huge impact on morale.

We have two strands to our Trust Fund, our School Fund which supports day-to-day activities and our longer term Trust Fund which supports some of our bigger projects in school. 

Why does the school need donations?

The school environment can have a huge impact on students’ morale and helps us to create the atmosphere of high expectations and a ‘can-do’ culture which we aim to foster and in which they can thrive.

By just focusing on basic priorities, such as classroom refurbishment, fixing the roof, replacing guttering or improving the flooring on stairs and corridors, we can create an environment in which students can learn, where their work and efforts can be displayed effectively, and they can be proud to spend time in.

What does the Trust Fund support?

The Trust Fund subsidises the funding of our school minibuses which give our students access to off-site extra-curricular activities.

It has also supported the purchasing of benches around the school to enable students to enjoy lunch 'alfresco' during the summer months as well as somewhere to sit during break times. 

We have recently requested support from the fund to improve the acoustics in Bader Hall. Many events take place in the hall, from assemblies to concerts and musicals.
