Year 8 (Y half) will have PE so MUST wear their active uniform.
Please ensure your child brings the correct equipment for lessons (Pen, pencil, ruler as a minimum)
Uniform Standards:
We will be reinforcing our high standards of uniform from day one. Please make sure you’re familiar with our expectations by visiting our website. Uniform information 2024/25
If you have any concerns, please contact your child’s Head of Year for support.
Cashless Canteen System/Lanyards
New students will be issued with lanyards and registered for our cashless system during the first week.
For other students, many handed in their lanyards at the end of last term for sanitising – these will be reissued. If they didn’t, they must wear their lanyard on arrival at school.
Previous cashless catering registrations will carry over and be ready for use.
We look forward to welcoming your child back to St Edmund’s next week. Stay tuned to our academy website and social media channels for any further updates.
