The St Edmund's College and Prep Five Year Plan 2025
At St Edmund’s College and Prep, we are proud to launch our Five-Year Strategic Plan (2025–2029) – a bold, values-led vision that reflects our enduring commitment to excellence, character, and community. This plan is more than a roadmap; it is a reflection of who we are and who we aspire to be, as a Catholic, independent day and boarding school for pupils aged 2 to 18.
Rooted in our mission to develop the whole person – mind, body, and spirit – the plan outlines our intention to be recognised as the leading Catholic independent school in the UK. It reaffirms our core belief that education should inspire curiosity, nurture compassion, and instil purpose in every pupil.
Over the next five years, our strategy focuses on five key objectives that will guide every aspect of school life.We begin with instilling values – shaping young people with integrity, empathy, and a strong moral compass. Our approach to pastoral care, liturgy, co-curricular enrichment and personal development ensures every pupil grows with confidence and a sense of responsibility.
A love of learning is at the heart of our academic ambition. We are investing in a rigorous, balanced curriculum, innovative teaching, and world-class learning environments. Our status as a High Performance Learning World Class School demonstrates our belief that excellence is possible for every child.
Through service, leadership and selflessness, we aim to equip our pupils with a global outlook and a deep understanding of their role in making the world a better place; from local volunteering to international cultural exchanges.
Our commitment to building lasting, trusted partnerships ensures parents and guardians are not just informed, but genuinely involved in their child’s journey. We know that when home and school work together, extraordinary outcomes follow.
Finally, ensuring sustainability guarantees that future generations can thrive at St Edmund’s. From environmentally responsible campus development to growing opportunities for access and inclusion, we are building a school that is future-ready in every sense.
This is an exciting moment in the life of our College. We invite you to read the full plan, discover just how deep our ambition goes, and join us in shaping a bright and lasting future for every member of the St Edmund’s family.
