Welcome to
St Edward’s

Welcome to the St Edward’s Royal Free Website. As well as some key documents, our fortnightly newsletters and our calendar of events, we hope you will get a feel for our ethos and values and the importance we attach to our school as part of the local community.

Our
Values

  • Christian Values at STERF
    ‘The carefully chosen values of the school service, excellence, respect and faith (SERF) are woven through the life of the school.’ SIAMS July 2024
  • Service
    ‘As the mustard tree provides shade for those who need it, pupils and staff at St Edward's Royal Free seek to serve the school and wider community..’ SIAMS 2024
  • Excellence
    ‘The wide range of clubs and experiences, which range from the pupil led ‘comic club’ to fencing and coding, aim to nurture the talents and interests of all. This allows pupils to experience ‘excellence’ both in and alongside the normal school timetable.’ SIAMS 2024
  • Respect
    ‘Respect is the hallmark of relationships at St Edward’s Royal Free. Pupils are keen to show this value around the school and therefore they take care of the school environment. Adults and pupils show respect to each other in their conversations and interactions. Staff greet pupils with a smile in the morning and this warm and appropriate culture extends throughout the day.’ SIAMS 2024
  • Faith
    ‘Rich opportunities for spiritual development are carefully considered as experiences are planned’ SIAMS 2024
