Inspection reports 2009

The Senior, Junior and Pre-Prep Schools, the Nursery and Junior and Senior boarding were inspected by Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI) and by Ofsted in November 2009.

“We are extremely proud of these reports. They paint a picture of a fine school, which is providing an excellent educational experience for our pupils in an outstanding pastoral context. St Edmund's is a wonderful place in which to learn and I am supported in the task of educating our pupils by a dedicated and talented team of teachers, whose professionalism has been justifiably acknowledged in this superb report." Head, Louise Moelwyn-Hughes
