Dear Parents/Carers,
At Edge Hill we are constantly looking to provide the best education and experiences for our children and school community and we work very hard in order to continuously improve our school.
As part of this commitment we are excited to announce that the Governing Board of Edge Hill Junior School have decided to apply to the Dfe to convert to academy status, with effect from 1st September 2019 and if successful the school will become part of the Fierte Multi-Academy Trust. The other schools in the trust are Violet Way Academy, Glascote Academy, Dosthill Primary Academy and Ankermore Primary Academy.
This is a very important and significant development for the school which has been taken after a long period of research and discussion. The Senior Leaders and Governing Board have been working tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure that this is the best course of action for our school community.
School has taken this decision because:
We are absolutely certain that Edge Hill, as an important part of the Fierte MAT will be able to continue to grow and build on the qualities that will enable us to become an outstanding school.
For further information please see below a Parents FAQs sheet.
Thank you for your continued support and if you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me or Carolyn Robinson (Chair of Governors) through school or via email at c.robinson@edgehill.staffs.sch.uk
