Headteachers Welcome

King Edward VI School in a high-performing, inclusive 11-18 community school. Our vision is built around Wellbeing, Collaboration and Aspiration. These three strands carry through all aspects of life at our school. 

Wellbeing - We value the personal and professional wellbeing of all members of our school community

Collaboration - We work together to achieve our shared ambitions 

Aspiration - We challenge ourselves to reach our full potential in all aspects of school life

King Edward VI students and staff are valued as individuals within our large and thriving school. We believe that supportive relationships and positive behaviour should be actively fostered through a whole-school approach. We value the views and ideas of all members of our school community and seek to develop a strong partnership between students, parents and the school. 

We have experienced subject specialists and highly skilled support staff who work hard to bring out the best in our students. Our success is built on strong collaboration, allowing us to provide high quality support and challenge. We are proud of the school's achievements and its long history in Lichfield. The school is well-resourced and has benefited from the significant investment in recent years, providing excellent facilities on a green and spacious campus. 

Students access a broad and dynamic curriculum in an environment that provides exceptional academic and pastoral support. In return we expect a commitment to high standards of effort and behaviour. We encourage all students to strive to reach their potential in its widest possible sense, pour staff are fully committed to providing the enrichment and wider extra-curricular opportunities that make our school such a vibrant community.
