King Edward VI School - Clubs and Societies

Clubs and Societies

We have a varied and extensive list of Clubs and Societies. As well as those offered by staff that have a particular interest or expertise in a certain area we aim to accommodate requests from our students. Our philosophy is quite simple; any proposal for an activity will be considered without prejudice and if it is deemed to be appropriate, we will do what we can to support it.

In the past, students have approached us to provide support for activities such as Table Tennis, Badminton, Warhammer and Debating. All of these clubs now run as successful entities in their own right.Some activities are run by Sixth Form volunteers. They are given appropriate training and guidance where necessary and they are always able to turn to the teacher ‘in charge’ if needed. They do a marvellous job and their commitment sets a wonderful example to the junior members of the School.
