School vision, values and Ethos
St Edward’s Royal Free is a distinctively Christian School in which we as individuals achieve and thrive with dignity, knowing we are loved by God.
In our supportive and exciting environment we are given opportunities to grow and learn; to aim for excellence in all we do and develop enquiring minds.
Learning Together in Christ
At St Edward’s Royal Free we strive to support and challenge pupils as they grow emotionally, academically and spiritually. Underpinning our Christian ethos is the parable of the mustard seed:
“The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed,
which a man took and planted in his field.
Though it is the smallest of all seeds, when it grows
it is the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree
so that the birds come and perch in its branches”
Matthew 13
In our school everyone is welcome, everyone is valued and everyone has the opportunity to flourish. Each child grows in our school community and in turn is nurtured by that same community.
SERVICE - EXCELLENCE - RESPECT - FAITH
