International School Award 2021-24
We are delighted to have been reaccredited with the ISA for the next three years in recognition of all our great work on the International theme.
Last year's work on bringing the International Dimension on to the curriculum has all paid off, with St. Edward's being accredited with the Full International School's Award.
This means that we are an "International School" and the accreditation lasts for three years before re-application.
We shall of course continue to enrich our curriculum with cross-cultural links and activities, preparing our pupils for life in our multi-cultural soceity.
