VI<br />
School<br />
Welcome to <strong>King</strong> <strong>Ed</strong>ward VI, a proudly inclusive 11-<br />
16 School which has been focused on providing world<br />
class education for nearly 500 years. We boast a strong<br />
history of academic excellence and a deep commitment<br />
to helping every child achieve. We are proud of every<br />
student in the school and work tirelessly to nurture and<br />
guide them so they can grow into happy, successful<br />
young adults who take pride in what they know and<br />
have confidence in what they do. As an 11-16 school<br />
we are specialists in child development for this critical<br />
period of ‘growing up’ and experts in preparing<br />
students for GCSE success.<br />
Embedded deep within the community of Bury St<br />
<strong>Ed</strong>munds we have long standing links within the area<br />
which create educational opportunities way above what<br />
is normally possible. We are proudly part of a local<br />
partnership which provides high quality education for<br />
children from 3-18 years, working closely with many<br />
local primary schools as well as Abbeygate Sixth Form<br />
and West Suffolk colleges.<br />
Each year, many students come to us directly as a<br />
result of parental preference rather than catchment<br />
area. We believe that every member of our school<br />
community should demonstrate care for others,<br />
strive to achieve their best (no matter how tough the<br />
challenge), develop their creative talent and critical<br />
thinking.<br />
