King Edward VI Five Ways School

As the only fully co-educational grammar school in the King Edward VI Foundation and Academy Trust, our mission is to make Birmingham the best place to be educated in the UK. With fourteen schools across the city, The King Edward VI Foundation is the largest provider of secondary school places in Birmingham outside the city council, educating more than 10,000 young people between the ages of 11 and 18. Each school has its own individual characteristics and heritage, but all subscribe to the same mission: making Birmingham the best place to be educated in the UK.

Five Ways aims to make a real and significant difference in the lives of each student we educate. Our students are not just academically brilliant; they are well-rounded individuals who actively participate in sports, the arts, clubs, societies, and fundraising activities. These experiences foster their leadership, creativity, and compassion for the world around them. We offer an ambitious curriculum and a rich, diverse personal development program. Our students benefit from a plethora of clubs and societies that cover the full spectrum of sporting, creative, and academic activities.
