Essex
Welcome to the website of The King Edmund School, also known as KES. This site
will help you understand what we stand for – our values and ethos – and give you
a true sense of us as a school. I also hope that you will be able to find any
other information about the school that you are seeking. We summarise our aims
as a school by the phrase ‘In Pursuit of Excellence'. We want every student to
strive to achieve the very best that they can in every aspect of school life –
from their studies to participation in school shows, sporting activities and so
on. The wellbeing of our students is something we also take seriously, since we
want students to be happy, well-adjusted and resilient during their time at KES
and beyond. A happy, secure student is far more likely to be successful
throughout life. The opportunities on offer at KES allow students to develop in
this way and to develop the skills and attributes they need to face the future
with confidence. I hope that you find our website useful and informative. We are
happy to receive feedback on any aspect of it. If you wish to give us feedback,
please email it to
