BOLTON SCHOOL ANNUAL GIVING REPORT 2022-23

ANNUAL GIVING REPORT 2015-16

The Bolton School Foundation A Community of Support The Bolton School Foundation, the charitable foundation which incorporates the Girls’, Boys’ and Primary Divisions of Bolton School, has continued to thrive during the 2022-23 academic year, with a return to levels of activity and endeavour surpassing those from pre-pandemic times.

Pupil numbers and recruitment across all three Divisions has remained buoyant, with the maximum Year 7 intake joining the two Senior Schools both this September and last. Examination results at both GCSE and A Level provided much to celebrate individually and across the cohorts, an outcome made all the more remarkable when the impact of Covid-19 upon both year groups’ Senior School experiences is considered. This year of achievement was capped by the outstanding inspection report received by the Girls’ Division in April 2023, in which the Girls’ Senior and Junior Schools were both rated as ‘excellent’ in every category assessed.

In that report, the inspectors remarked: “Pupils have an exceedingly strong sense of community, showing a deep commitment to service and contributing positively to the lives of others within School and beyond”. This sense of community extends far beyond our pupils’ time at School, and nowhere is that more apparent than in the exceptional philanthropic support the School has enjoyed throughout the past 12 months. During the 202223 academic year, an amazing £2 million was given in support of the Bolton School bursary scheme. In addition

to this exceptional total, a further £140,000 was received to provide hardship funding for pupils with families experiencing financial difficulties, and another £252,000 to provide extra-curricular support for bursary pupils, university scholarships, academic prizes and funding for a variety of other projects and activities. This outstanding level of benefaction has impacted positively upon every aspect of the Foundation’s activities, and is appreciated wholeheartedly by the pupils, staff, leaders and Governors of the School.

This sense of community is evident also in the high number of Alumni and others who generously gave their time and expertise to the School during the past 12 months, and whose names are listed in the Roll of Honour within this Report for the first time this year. In the past year, the School, its pupils and Alumni have benefited from the service of 243 volunteers who offered the gift of time to the Foundation. These volunteers supported pupil careers and enrichment activities across all three Divisions, community events and activities benefiting local schools and those living in the wider Bolton area, and the two mentoring schemes for young Old Boys and

GIVING REPORT 2 022- 23

Old Girls, alongside the service of of my fellow Governors and Trustees, who work voluntarily to ensure the good governance of the Foundation and the further growth of our bursary scheme. Thank you to all those who have given their time and expertise so generously to the School during the past 12 months, and for the contribution you have made to the Foundation’s continued success throughout that time.

As an election approaches in 2024, the Governing Body is now preparing extensively for the impact that a change in Government would have upon the School’s finances and bursary funding model, particularly if VAT is applied to school fees. Regardless of any legislative changes ahead, we are determined that the ethos and values of the Bolton School Foundation must be protected, so that they can endure throughout this second century of our history. We are intent that the School community will remain socially and economically diverse – as it is today, and as it has been since our foundation, almost 110 years ago – and we are resolute that the School should continue to be open to all who would thrive here, irrespective of background or position.

If we are to achieve these goals, it is imperative that progress towards our ambition to fund one in three pupils’ places at the School is not derailed. The need for support for our bursary scheme has never been more urgent, and we are grateful to every one of our benefactors and volunteers for their steadfast and enduring support.

With our strong shared community spirit and sense of collective responsibility to ensure our ethos and values endure, we will have the best chance of realising that ambition.

With my best wishes for the festive season, and thanks for your support.

Ian Riley (Class of 1981) Chair of the Bolton School Governing Body Trustee of the Bolton School Bursary Foundation

The Bolton School Bursary Foundation A Year of Success It is now over a year since the Bolton School Bursary Foundation (BSBF), the charity through which the School’s bursary funds are raised, held and granted, was formally launched to the Bolton School community.

BSBF was established by the School’s Governing Body in May 2022 to ensure that the donations, given so generously by the School’s supporters to enable its bursary scheme during the past quarter of a century, remain ring-fenced for that purpose in the decades to come.

I was privileged that my place at the School was assisted by a Direct Grant, as were those of many of my friends.

My wife, Nancy (Girls’ Division, Class of 1983) benefited from a local authority-funded free place and would not have been able to attend the School otherwise. Nancy and I have proudly supported the bursary scheme for many years, in recognition of the ongoing impact our education at Bolton School has had upon both of our lives. My service as Chair of Trustees of BSBF, and as a Governor of the School, is rooted in this desire to ensure that the opportunities we enjoyed continue to be available to future generations of pupils at the School, and I know that it is this same sense of “giving back, to pay it forward” that motivates many others of the School’s benefactors to support the bursary scheme alongside us.

In the coming years, the Governors’ strategic priority is to grow the bursary scheme from the one in five pupils

currently supported, to provide bursary funding for one in three pupils across the two Senior Divisions. If the School is to remain as socially inclusive as it has always been – a place open to the bright and talented, regardless of their families’ circumstances – then this expansion of the bursary scheme is vital. The legislative changes expected should there be a change of Government in the coming year, particularly the imposition of VAT on school fees, will have a significant impact upon the timescales in which we can realistically achieve this ambition, and on the funding required to achieve it. Nevertheless, I and the other Trustees of BSBF are intent that the bursary funds we steward will be grown significantly throughout the remainder of this decade in order to provide funding to support one in three of the Senior Schools’ pupils, and we will not be deterred from this mission. Your continued support will be crucial if we are to achieve that goal, but so too will that of many more Alumni and other members of the School community. In the coming months, please do encourage friends and former classmates to follow your example and support the bursary scheme themselves if they are able to, in order to promote our cause further.

GIVING REPORT 2 022- 23

During the 2022-23 academic year, just over £2 million was donated to the bursary scheme – proof that the School community shares our passionate belief in this ambition, and in our commitment to its achievement.

On behalf of the Trustees of BSBF, thank you for your generous support during the past academic year, and for the continued endorsement of our aims that your gifts provide. With your sustained benefaction and broader support, we will continue to pursue our goal to expand the bursary scheme significantly, and thus enable the School to continue to drive social mobility across Bolton and beyond.

With my sincere thanks once again, and best wishes for the year ahead.

John Craven (Class of 1982) Governor of Bolton School Chair of Trustees of the Bolton School Bursary Foundation

The Power of a Bursary Place A Bolton School bursary can transform the trajectory of a child’s life forever.

Last year, your generosity meant that 54 members of the Class of 2023 had their aspirations raised and their opportunities for success increased, thanks to the bursary support they received: • In the A Level results published in August 2023, 63% of those bursary recipients achieved grades A*-B, with 37% of those pupils securing grades A*-A; • 39 of those bursary pupils left the School to study at university, including 23 pupils who are now studying at one of the prestigious Russell Group universities, including Oxford and Cambridge. A further four bursary pupils secured places on highlycompetitive Degree Apprenticeship schemes with a variety of national and international businesses.

“I would like to express my sincerest gratitude to my benefactors for having faith in my ability and investing in me from such a young age. I hope one day that I will be in a position where I get to pay it forward to the young minds of the next generation.”

Class of 2023 Bursary Recipient

GIVING REPORT 2 022- 23

Your Support During the 2022-23 academic year, the School community made pledges and gifts totaling £2.39 million in support of the School and its pupils.

As a result of this generosity, last year the School spent £3.5 million on means-tested bursary funding, enabling 356 pupils – one in five across the two Senior Schools – to attend the School when otherwise they would have been prevented from doing so.

£2 million was given to support the expansion of the School’s bursary scheme, including £47,000 donated by 191 families of the Class of 2022, who gifted their children’s deposit for bursary funding.

A further £638,000 was bequeathed by eight Alumni and Friends of the School, who remembered the School in their wills, and whose legacies collectively provided inyear funding for 64 bursary recipients.

In addition to these transformational sums, a further £140,000 was donated by a charitable trust to provide hardship funding for pupils whose families were facing financial distress, with another £252,000 donated to support the provision of extra-curricular trip grants and ancillary costs for bursary recipients, university scholarships for recent leavers, academic prizes for pupils in both Senior Schools, the continued development of Patterdale Hall, the development of departmental facilities and the expansion of the School’s bursary outreach programme.

This includes a bequest of £125,000 from the late Dr David Speirs (Class of 1962) for the improvement and development of the Boys’ Division’s Technology Department, two bequests to support the Divisions’ respective Music Departments and a bequest from the late Mrs Dorothy Lees-Blakey (née Lees, Class of 1950) to augment the Lees-Blakey Drama Prize Fund.

The Gift of Time During the 2022-23 academic year, 243 Alumni, Current Parents, Former Parents, Friends, Governors and Trustees volunteered their time to support the Bolton School Foundation and its pupils, past and present.

These volunteers included: • 170 volunteers who gave their time, expertise and energies to support the School’s careers and enrichment programme, benefiting both current pupils and the wider community. Volunteers presented at a variety of virtual and in-person sessions, including the School’s Perspectives Lecture series, the World of Work series, the A-Z of Careers series, the International Women’s Day careers event, the annual Year 12 Interview Skills evenings, the Sixth Form Entrepreneurship Scheme, the Tillotson Lecture, the Platt Fisher Lecture, the Hulton Lecture and many more activities besides; • 24 Old Boy and Old Girl mentors who supported young Alumni through the Old Boltonians’ Association’s Find Your Path mentoring scheme and the Old Girls’ Association’s Steps to Success mentoring scheme; • 26 Old Boys and Old Girls who served on the committees of the Old Boltonians’ and Old Girls’ Associations; • 16 Governors of the Bolton School Foundation and six Trustees of the Bolton School Bursary Foundation who offered time and expertise to ensure the good governance of the School and the continued growth of its bursary funds; and

• The Officers, Committee Members and Volunteers of the Parents’ Associations of the five Schools, and of the Friends of Bolton School, who gave their time to support School activities and fundraising for the benefit of pupils in all three Divisions of the School.

From this year onwards, the names of all who volunteer their support to the School will be recorded in the annual Roll of Honour, in recognition of their gift of time and the benefits this brings to the Foundation.

Using Your Donations Responsibly

Contact Us

We are privileged to receive the generous support of so many members of the Bolton School community, and take our responsibilities in the stewardship and management of these gifts seriously:

The Development Office is responsible for all fundraising activity in support of the Bolton School Foundation, and on behalf of the Bolton School Bursary Foundation.

• Every donation we receive goes directly to support the bursary scheme or to the purpose directed by the donor - all costs associated with the running of the Development Office are borne entirely by the School; • Outside School hours, we use our buildings and facilities to generate income, with the annual profits from the School’s trading arm, BSSL, and the School’s Nursery, gifted back to School to support our bursary scheme; • The management of the invested funds held by the School and by BSBF is overseen with care by the two charities’ respective Investment Committees, with the objective of delivering sustainable growth in bursary provision whilst preserving the real value of invested capital; • In order to preserve and grow the real value of the bursary funds in an endowment style, thus ensuring financial support remains available to both current and future pupils, each year, the Trustees of BSBF will determine the level of grant to be made to the School for bursary support, for the School’s Governors then to determine the total funds available to spend on bursaries in the following academic year; • All bursaries are entirely means-tested, awarded via a transparent and rigorous allocations process designed to ensure that financial support reaches those who are the most deserving of it. This allocations process, which includes detailed financial checks and individual interviews, is reviewed annually, and all bursary applications are renewed entirely at the end of Year 11, before a child’s admission to the Sixth Form.

If you would like to make a gift to support the School’s bursary scheme, or are considering remembering the School in your will, please contact Laura Firth, Director of Development and Alumni Relations, on 01204 434718 or at development@boltonschool.org, who will be happy to discuss with you, in confidence, how you might support the School.
