With 50 acres of countryside, sport is key to daily life at Edgeborough. The school delivers a hugely varied programme of competitive team sports as well as swimming, athletics, tennis, cross country and climbing. Performing arts are integral to the curriculum with an extensive variety on offer in music, dance, drama, art, DT and design.

Headteacher’s Philosophy
Our determination to protect childhood coexists with our ambition for pupils to grow academically, socially and emotionally. The Edgeborough community inspires its pupils, promoting self-discovery; encouraging expression of individual beliefs and values, while at the same time, building strong relationships with everyone they encounter. Kindness and respect towards others, ourselves and the world around us is at the heart of the school. We endeavour to be forward thinking and progressive, enabling our children to recognise the importance of giving back to others
Outstanding Characteristics
Excellent teaching staff with high academic standards and a broad-based curriculum. Strong emphasis on the cross-curricular. Outdoor learning is a large part of everyday life. Children are encouraged to try new interests and take risks in a safe, supportive environment, building resilience for future challenges. All individual pupil achievements are celebrated and everyone is taught to celebrate others. Pupils leave well prepared academically and socially for a smooth transition into later life. ‘Inclusive, ambitious and a huge amount of fun’ The Good Schools Guide
