Please note that the sites will typically open up in this window unless you have specified otherwise. This approach is now considered best practice as it leaves the decision on where the site will be displayed with the user. Indeed the 'target' attribute is not supported in strict HTML 4.01.

Edmonton County School

Having once had a site that had been prepared by Sixth Formers, then nothing for a considerable time, and then a one page temporary site for several months, a new site seemed to be appearing in early May 2005. However there seems to have been problems taking this live and after a few weeks of a badly broken site there was nothing at all until around October 2005 when the new site appeared again, though unless the school really did have vacancies for mud wrestlers and lightbulb testers one might suspect it wasn't really the finished article. Checking again in January 2007 revealed a new site being created by a commercial company but this had no content and an incorrect e-mail address so was presumably a work in progress. This incorrect e-mail address was finally changed in the first half of 2008, but sadly to another incorrect one. The website design had changed a bit by June 2008 but it still didn't look particularly complete.  The correct e-mail address had finally appeared by November 2008. The preferred URL now seems to be http://www.edmontoncounty.co.uk/. The site still seems to look different every time I visit it.

Edmonton Rovers Football Club

Edmonton Rovers is a Sunday football team formed in 1976 by two Edmonton County pupils and old boys still feature in significant numbers among the management and players.

Friends Reunited

The school is listed as Edmonton County School, as you might expect. There are entries going back to 1925. Rowantree Secondary Modern is listed separately and is linked with Raglan Secondary Modern (but not Croyland).

Lower Edmonton (lower-edmonton.co.uk)

This is a site about Lower Edmonton which covers a large part of the traditional catchment area for the school. Sadly development of the site was pretty much frozen at the end of 2005.

Old Edmontonians Football Club

Old Edmontonians Football Club is thriving though gone are the days when all the players were old boys of the school.
