Educational Visits

The school is very proud of the conduct from the students and is therefore confident in providing so many educational opportunities. King Edward’s realise the possible financial implications that educational visits can place upon families and therefore many visits are subsidised by the school’s hardship fund, and parents can also apply through the school to the Staffordshire School’s Endowment Fund to help with the costs of visits.

We have also rewarded many of our students with additional trips to Water World, Alton Towers and also the “Young Teen Fiction Celebration Day” where several of King Edward’s students had their short stories published.

King Edward VI also utilise many of the local attractions and events, such as the Castle during Shakespeare Week, and Rowley Park for specialist sporting activities.

Visits include:

Black Country Living Museum
Quarry Bank Mill
Drayton Manor Theme Park
Le Touquet
Botswana
Barcelona
Chester Zoo

"Students benefit from a wide range of after-school activities, sporting events and educational trips."
