Why there is an Oakham School Foundation
Oakham is unique in many ways. It is the leading school offering both the International Baccalaureate and A-levels, it provides an incredible range of sports and activities and it offers an unrivalled commitment to educating the whole child, both academically and non-academically. We call this our Total Curriculum.
Creating such a school has only been possible thanks to the remarkable generosity of our supporters. Those who have attended the School understand what it is to be an Oakhamian. Every pupil who has passed through these gates - not least those with scholarships or bursaries - will have enjoyed opportunities and facilities only made possible by the generous benefactors before them.
The Foundation is a charity and an independent body with a Board of Trustees and a full-time Director. Its constitution has been designed so it will always remain committed to supporting the development objectives of Oakham School.
We are grateful to OOs, parents and other friends for their support which has helped create a truly impressive range of facilities. We hope our donors recognise the deep gratitude we have for their gifts and generosity of spirit. Our ambitions for our School and for our young people remain high. We hope you will be able to help us reach them.
