...is in a most glorious setting, looking beautiful on this crisp clear Autumn day. I was given a warm welcome, and shown around - the chapel is by Pugin and is glorious, with no horrible modernist wrecking having been done, and the boarders gather there each evening for prayer before the Blessed Sacrament.I gave a talk on "Journalism and the Media" to a big gathering of senior pupils, and a number clustered round afterwards to talk further and ask questions. I was presented with a commemorative School Teddy Bear, very cuddly and wearing a St Edmund's jersey. It was all enormously enjoyable and I received agreeable impressions of England's oldest post-Reformation Catholic school.

It looks great but there is a gender imbalance on the website; I was under the initial impression that it was a girls' school.
my school :) it really is beautiful and everyone is so nice there :D x
I went to St Edmunds for 5 years, from the start of year 7, called elements there(named after a college martyr) and finished at the end of year 11, called poetry(named after a college martyr) I then went to a school, called framlingham, and in comparison looking at schools and talking to ex students of St Edds, and about there new school, they all say no were compares to St Edmunds, it is by far the best school in the country in terms of personality, atmosphere, friendliness, lack of bullying, lack of cliques, its is a beautiful place. At the end of your time at most school, you are given a grade sheet, to tell you what the school has done for you in a way, in St Edds, you were given more than that, the school builds character, it is a school devoted to creating young men and women with the aspiration to do better than they ever have, in short St Edds terns people in to grate individuals... was the best time of my life so far
