Alumni
Students are proud to be Alumni of King Edward VI, Sixth Form. They go on to be excellent ambassadors for the school in their further study and employment. Many students return to the Sixth Form to share these experiences and encourage others to do the same.
Every student of King Edward VI , Sixth Form becomes an Old Edwardian.
Old Edwardians can stay in touch through LinkedIn - please request to be connect to KES Lichfield. The aim is to enable past students to stay in touch, being able to reach out to each other through a work media platform. The ability to connect is restricted to students who attended our school.
Its great to see how past students are progressing in their careers. Feedback from past students is that they would like to contribute to the school and LinkedIn enables communication to take place.
So please connect, share your successes, help each other in your careers and get in touch with us at school with any ideas that would enable Old Edwardians to put something back into the school.
