Quick question: what do Homer ton College , the Royal Academy and Captain Cook have in common? The answer is a 250th anniversar y.
It was a quar ter of a millennium ago that Captain James Cook made his fir st voyage to the South Seas; and that Sir Joshua Reynolds opened the Royal Academy to promote the appreciation and the making of ar t. At that same time , in Homer ton High Street, East London, my fir st predecessor as Pr incipal, John Conder, opened the door s of an academy for the tr aining of dissenting minister s In 2018 we have been discover ing our past, celebr ating our present and posing questions for the Homer ton of the future
The three threads r unning through our calendar of anniver sar y events we ter med our
Three Bur ning Questions What is the future of Healthcare? What does it mean to be Human? And how do we dr ive Change? Some potential answer s to the fir st question were answered in a sell-out evening discussion on genomics held in the Babbage Theatre as par t of the Festival of Ideas. It was inspir ing to see through the contr ibutions of Fellows such as Dame Sally Davies, Chief Medical Officer for England, just how quickly the College has become a hub in the wor ld of Medicine , a subject that only five year s ago was not even taught in Homer ton A month later, ‘Monster s and Me’ filled the College Auditor ium as I talked about the wicked science of Dr Fr ankenstein in fiction and film, and Dr Beth Singler, one of a number of Fellows to have joined the College in our anniver sar y year, sketched a picture of our future as we lear n to deal with our own creations in robotics and Ar tificial Intelligence
Dr Melanie Keene, Professor Geoff Ward and Dr Beth Singler debate ‘Me, Myself and AI’ at the Homerton 250 Festival
Homer ton is known to be the backbone of thespian Cambridge , and the theatre was not neglected Those present as one of our greatest actor s, Simon Russell Beale , gave a masterclass on how to deliver Hamlet’s soliloquies will never forget it – not least the Homer ton Drama students who learned so much that afternoon. Meanwhile the visual ar ts were represented by C ARE, a multi-site wor k by Elena Cologni which used materials drawn from our ever-growing Archives to constr uct an ar ticulated histor y of the College in words, photographs, Victorian embroider y, gymnasium equipment, film and all the other components of our varied and evolving histor y.
Our Festival in October was the lar gest public event ever mounted by a Cambr idge College All the myr iad Homer tons were on show, with wor kshops on ever ything from 3D bio-pr inting and puppet theatre to balloon modelling and chemistr y A musical highlight was the presence throughout the day of Honor ar y Fellow Dame Evelyn Glennie , whose improvisational br illiance inspires on all levels. More music , including more than one wor ld
première , came close to r aising the roof of the Great Hall at our culminating Concer t, br inging the spinning cycle of events to a stunning finale Homer ton’s new and faintly jazzy Fanfare was given a spir ited air ing, and the Choir sang highlights from Handel’s Messiah with appropr iate oomph. Centrepiece of the evening was the première of Elevation, a wor k by College Composer-in-Residence
John Hopkins John used a visual stimulus – the architectur al and arboreal per spective from the Ibber son Building to Queen’s Wing – to supply a r ichly textured tapestr y in music
As a descr iptor for Homer ton’s year of celebr ation, ‘elevation’ points to what we have become as an institution, and the direction we wish to take . As wor k commences on the new Dining Hall, its relevance will not be lost One of the lessons of this year for me has been the impor tance of not losing, but of always wor king to find out more about, what Homer tonians have done This was never more tr ue than on the evening devoted to the life of Leah Manning, who rescued 3,886 or phans and at-r isk children from the hor ror of the Spanish Civil War, lifting them to safety in the United Kingdom. It was deeply moving to have two of those children, now in their nineties, join us
I began this column with Captain Cook’s voyage , and the opening of the RA In many ways those were dar ker days than our own for the major ity of people The voyages of discover y our predecessor s under took did not always br ing happiness to the populations they encountered. And yet the founding pr inciples of enter pr ise , equality of access and the mission to ser ve society’s needs that were there in Homer ton’s beginnings are needed now more than ever before I will end by thanking ever yone in College who made our 250th year such a vivid public success I invite ever yone reading this to continue suppor ting Homer ton, in ever ything it has been, is now, and will be throughout the next 250 year s. n

This year we have embarked on a new initiative that has moved rapidly in an exciting and unexpected direction
At around the turn of the year we received several visits from different groups in Michigan University, where a variety of initiatives in student personal development run alongside academic programmes
Picking up their ideas and enthusiasm we began to see how relevant and special such a thing might be for our students at Homerton, building on our existing personal development days but in the form of a structured and purposeful programme built around the four pillars of social responsibility, efficacy, action and leadership Many students develop such skills as a by-product of extracurricular activity such as sport, drama and music, but others may not have had these opportunities, be reticent to ‘have a go ’ , or too worried about their workload to think they can afford the time.
The idea of this new co-curricular programme is that it will help students to develop the skills that they will need to be successful agents of change in the 21st century, which is a dynamic and interesting time to be alive, but which will also need citizens with resilience, agility and confidence – in many contexts from establishing their own businesses to helping to change organisations from within
Our plans developed with quite astonishing speed, and by the summer the College Council had approved our proposal to recruit the first Academic Director of Homerton Changemakers, and to commission a draft curriculum from consultants. Dr Alison Wood was appointed to this post in October and we are in the midst of designing the details of the programme, to be launched early next year As well as being a unique programme tailor-made for current Homertonians, we think that this will be a great incentive for students to apply to Homerton, and also open all kinds of opportunities for alumni to contribute their experience and ideas to new generations The University is looking on with interest and we have enthusiastic support from the highest levels. Please do let us know how you would like to be involved (you can email me on pb29@cam ac uk)

LEADERSHIP ACTION
Our students again produced outstanding exam results in 2018 Three years ago our results took a firm step upwards to our ‘best ever ’ , and this position has been consolidated, with 90% of our students graduating this year with Firsts or Upper Seconds This year our star subject performers were Economics (in which Homerton ranked second amongst the colleges), Maths (where we came 8th, beating Trinity), Human, Social and Political Sciences (in which we came 10th) and Psychological and Behavioural Sciences (also 10th, with five Firsts) Of course our students also did outstandingly well in the Education Tripos
The skills Homerton Changemakers aims to foster in its students
There were some exceptional performances by individuals in Natural Sciences, including the top First in final year Physics and an exceptional top First in Zoology. Prizes were awarded to 47 graduating students with Firsts on graduation day, and more than 70 undergraduates in the other years received them at Prize-winners’ Formal Hall in October We particularly enjoy celebrating this academic success as one of the most ethnically and socially diverse of the Cambridge colleges Don’t believe everything you read in the press about Cambridge – or at least don’t assume it applies to Homerton!
Looking backward rather than forward, I have been looking at my own family’s history, and found that my great-grandfather’s experience had an interesting resonance with Homerton’s history
‘He worked his way steadily up the school in his quiet manner, and eventually [probably in around
1868] achieved an entrance to Trinity College, Cambridge The two old Universities had only just been opened to Nonconformists, who would therefore be looked upon somewhat askance And there was a prevailing idea that university life unsettled a boy for a business career
However it is clear that [his family] thought that his steady quiet character would withstand all lures and temptations And so it did ’
C
A Lupton, ‘The Lupton family in Leeds’, 1965
His three sons, my three great uncles, were all killed in the trenches, after also being students at Cambridge – presumably at about the time that Homerton was newly establishing itself here. It is quite moving to think of these unknown relatives treading different parts of the same paths through history and perhaps encountering Homertonians: I wonder what they were like as people and what they would think of Cambridge today? n

As 2018 draws to a close, we are at last, after three years, able to announce the success of our planning application with St Mary’s
School to develop the nine acres of sports fields owned by the school on Long Road The redevelopment will provide floodlit artificial pitches for hockey, rugby, lacrosse and football, as well as netball and tennis courts I have been promising this for some time and am excited
about what this means for current and future students Our students work incredibly hard and to be able to get out in the winter evenings to train, play or just run about will support them and allow them to achieve even more. We have a lot of work to do to overcome some of the problems of the site but are hopeful that the facilities will be in place in early 2020
Before that our rowers will be in their new home, shared with the City of Cambridge Rowing Club The current boat house is now razed to the ground and the plan is for the new boat house to be completed for summer
2019 Our rowers will have access to a wider range of boats than ever before and will be members of a physical club for the first time I am looking forward to seeing the Homerton flag
Impression of the proposed new sports facilities
flying high next Bumps. The agreement requires us to provide a new eight every two years which hopefully our alumni will contribute to through our new Stephenson Fund
All our staff care for and look out for our students and know that pride in their College as well as clean, well-maintained accommodation, nutritious food, beautiful gardens and excellent IT provide the right environment for our students to thrive We opened the new Griffin bar this summer which has received plaudits from our students as a place to both study and relax. But equally important are the numerous compliments we receive for the quality of the food and service provided every day Just because we have a “captive” audience does not stop us striving to provide high quality
The accounts for the financial year to 30 June 2018 were approved by the Governing Body on 30 November. Having completed and unwound our investment in the housing development, Homerton Gardens, income and expenditure now reflect a more “business as usual” picture after five years of increasing investment in teaching and support for students As we endeavour to keep our rents amongst the lowest in collegiate Cambridge, we must continue to diversify and improve our other revenues and control our operating costs. Investment in energy saving technology such as ground source heat pumps and LED lighting is part of that programme The full Annual Accounts are available on the College website n

Rosie Austin, Acting Librarian
After over a year of preparations and testing, ProQuest ALMA, the new Library management system for the University of Cambridge, launched on 16 January 2018 The major obvious change for students and staff is that they now have one library account and are able to view all their loans from Homerton, their Faculty Libraries and the University Library in one place online, through iDiscover Behind the scenes, Library staff have been fulfilling a huge amount of data testing as well as undertaking extensive training to be able to implement the new system to its full potential
At Homerton, we are proud that we are one of the few college libraries to use all workflows in ALMA, including acquisitions to budget and managing all our purchases As a result, Alys Butler (Acquisitions Librarian) and Robin Surtees (Deputy Librarian) have been working closely in conjunction with the University Library to test reporting features on the new system, benefiting not just Homerton but the wider Cambridge library community through their technical expertise
This year has seen the completion of the retrospective cataloguing of the Rare Books Collection – including the rare children’s books – by James Brigden (Cataloguer), making the collection fully searchable for researchers. Detailed standardised bibliographic records are available for each item, highlighting its provenance and any distinguishing features in terms of binding or illustrations Undertaking such painstaking research has allowed us to discover hidden gems within our special collection, including a first edition, first printing of Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter
With the completion of the cataloguing of the rare children’s books, the Lealan Collection, acquired from Mr Malcolm Lealan in 2013 has been brought onsite and the task of cataloguing the collection has begun. With around 7,500 items, including roughly 1,500 monographs and 6,000 annuals – enough to fill a standard shipping container – the Lealan Collection is substantial Comprising a broad range of annuals, novels, anthologies and non-fiction from nearly 200 years of children’s literature, the collection is a valuable and significant addition to the resources of the Library
In April, Jess Taylor (Deputy Librarian –maternity cover) undertook the reorganisation of the rare books storage after the Library purchased new cupboards to house the everexpanding collection The Library and Archive continues to receive donations from alumni, Retired Senior Members and members of the public, and we are thankful for their generosity and grateful for their support
It has been another busy year for Library staff. In June, I returned from maternity leave just in time to cover the maternity leave of Liz Osman (Librarian) who welcomed a son, Aelfric, in July September saw the appointment of Jenna Lawrence (Library Assistant) to join our staff on secondment from the University Library, as Gabriel Duckels commenced a position as Research Assistant with the Faculty of Education We have been fortunate to recruit Jenna, with her knowledge of children’s collections and excellent customer service skills, who is always seen smiling from the enquiry desk.
As an accompaniment to ‘Synergy and Contradiction: How Picturebooks and Picture Books Work’, an international conference organised by the Centre for Children’s Literature
Research in Cambridge; the Library staff curated an exciting exhibition of picturebooks called ‘Curiouser and Curiouser: The Picturebooks of Homerton College Library’ The exhibition was also open to members of the public later in Michaelmas term as part of the Open Cambridge programme of events and as part of the Homerton 250 Festival; alongside lectures on the history of the picture book and the rare book collection at Homerton Over 100 members of the public visited as part of Open Cambridge and 50 attendees viewed and handled our rare books as part of our Homerton 250 celebrations
Easily the most popular book featured in our exhibition was The Speaking Picture Book, published by H Grevel & Co in around 1880–90 Based on a German patent by Theodore Brand, this book contains a selection of illustrated animal poems, from the lamb to the cuckoo From the outside, it appears like a large tome with gilded edges, but most of this book actually houses nine mechanical paper bellows, used to draw in and expel air when a cord is pulled at the side of the book Each cord corresponds to a particular poem, allowing the reader to recreate the sound of the featured animal at the appropriate moment This intriguing item really struck a chord with the followers of @homlib on Twitter, as well as with journalists, and saw articles published by the BBC, the Metro and the Cambridge News about the book. The Library also welcomed BBC Look East to record the ‘Speaking Book’ and interview Rosie Austin (Librarian) about its rarity as an item whilst demonstrating its ‘cuckoo’ sound
In October, the Library was thrilled to host the visiting collection of international books which form the IBBY collection of Outstanding
Books For and About Young People with Disabilities Tactile books, books in Braille and wordless picturebooks all feature in this fascinating collection. Students were encouraged to engage with the collection visually through the vibrant display of IBBY books at the Library, but also to interact with them through their use as primary research texts The Library was pleased to support a seminar organised by PhD students Anna Purkiss (University of Cambridge) and Fox Benwell, (Anglia Ruskin University) who presented their research into disabilities and literature, giving an overview of both the academic field and the primary texts available. Over 30 attendees (staff and students from both institutions) explored the varied IBBY collection, engaged in discussion and had a go at making spreads from popular picture books tactile (with fantastic results!)
We must also ‘remember, remember the 2nd November’ when Gabriel Duckels and Jenna Lawrence together represented the Library at the inaugural Special Dissertation Fair organised by the Cambridge Archive Group at St John’s College. Over 137 students attended the event and many visited our stand to view items from our collection and speak to PhD students and Dr Zoe Jaques from the Cambridge Centre for Children’s Literature about how to use the Homerton collection as part of their research
We were delighted to welcome students back in January through our newly installed sliding library doors and to introduce them to the new self-issue kiosk and RFID security system upgraded over the Christmas vacation. We aim to continue encouraging the Homerton community to engage further with the collection and library services over the rest of the academic year n

The Homerton 250 Festival
Forming the climax of a year of celebration and exploration, both of Homerton’s 250-year history, and the purpose and identity of the College in 2018, the 250 Festival was an extraordinary day
The largest public event ever staged by a Cambridge college, the Festival allowed us to open our doors to many hundreds of friends and neighbours Over 1000 people registered for the day, ranging from those with lifelong Homertonian connections, to the many visiting for the first time
The Festival demonstrated the exciting breadth of investigation currently being undertaken by Homerton Fellows and researchers, with talks and panel discussions on meteorites, gene therapy, artificial intelligence, children’s literature and Frankenstein. There were events for all ages and interests, from balloon modelling, face painting, messy chemistry, puppet shows and storytelling, to jazz bands, dance displays, rodeo bulls and zorbing Craft stalls and free coffee jostled for space with literary quizzes and surf simulators
Honorary Fellow Dame Evelyn Glennie delivered an unforgettably dynamic percussion masterclass in a packed-out Great Hall; as well as braving the cold to provide an unannounced additional session involving young passers-by during lunch
The day culminated in a drinks reception for invited guests and sponsors in the Griffin bar, with a celebratory cake incorporating the Great Hall’s iconic Rose Window 250th birthdays are not an everyday occurrence The Festival provided Homerton with an unmissable opportunity to introduce the wider world to what makes Homerton unique and distinctive today; to celebrate the two and a half centuries which have brought us to this point; and to cement the reputation for friendliness and approachability which is central to who we are
The Philippa Pearce Lecture
The tenth anniversary Philippa Pearce Lecture was held at Homerton College on Thursday, 19 April 2018. It was delivered by Frances Hardinge, a highly acclaimed children’s author whose novels include Fly By Night, Twilight Robbery, the Carnegie-shortlisted Cuckoo Song and Costa Book of the Year winner, The Lie Tree
In her lecture, Frances explored the darkness, shadows, and the things hiding within which permeate children’s literature. Menace often appears through suggestion or allusion – the half-heard whistles in Philippa Pearce’s The Shadow Cage, the puzzling language and mysterious meaning of Lewis Carroll’s Jabberwocky Is this to hide the darkness from well-meaning adults? Those who would flick the light switch and rationalise the shadows, who forget that the light is only a respite from the dark?
Frances Hardinge signs copies of her books at the 2018 Philippa Pearce Lecture.
Children’s authors, Frances discussed, must play an important role in acknowledging the darkness of childhood They see the shadows too, and can reassure the child that they are not alone Philippa Pearce herself understood this well, as Frances pointed out. In The Shadow Cage, the child is rescued at the last by an adult who is able to step outside of the adult mindset, and to hear and recognise the reality of the menace However, most importantly, children need to learn that they can fight the shadows; they just need the right kind of light
The prestigious Philippa Pearce Lecture is an annual event that celebrates excellence in
literature for children. It provides a platform for the very best children’s authors, poets and illustrators to reflect on their art Always thoughtprovoking, the lectures have tackled such topics as the significance of time, the place of fear, and what poetry is for
The lectures were established in 2007 by the family, friends and colleagues of the highly distinguished children’s author, Philippa Pearce. They attract a regular and wide-ranging audience of academics, writers, publishers and lovers of children’s literature
From Homerton to Homerton
Alumnus Luke Billingham (PGCE 2012) has a uniquely Homertonian pedigree Born in Homerton Hospital, a stone’s throw from the original East London site of Homerton’s first incarnation, Luke came to Cambridge to read Politics, Psychology and Sociology at Trinity Hall, before completing a PGCE at Homerton College
He then returned to the original Homerton, where he currently works for Hackney Quest, a youth and community engagement programme, supporting young people in East London.
Luke made a return visit to Homerton College on 29 October, when he spoke to the current cohort of PGCE students about the intertwined history of the College and the London district He gave a preview screening of a video currently in production made up of interviews with young people in Hackney (the East London borough of which Homerton is a part) on their experience of growing up in the area, and how its recent gentrification has affected them. Luke then led
a vibrant discussion on how Homerton College might re-establish a meaningful connection with its namesake; before joining staff and students for a drinks reception and Formal Hall

250 Concert
We concluded our year of anniversary celebrations on 25 November with a concert which combined world premières with beloved classics, and brought together current students and alumni, as well as staff and Fellows past and present.
A festive Great Hall, complete with Christmas tree, was packed with an audience consisting both of those with longstanding connections to Homerton and members of the public The programme included the first public performance of Composer-in Residence John
Hopkins’ Elevation, written specifically to mark the anniversary year
In a year in which ‘How do we drive Change?’ has been one of Homerton’s Burning Questions, and Homerton Changemakers has been brought into existence, the repeated emphatic phrase “And we shall be changed” in alumnus William Hewstone’s beautiful rendition of The Trumpet Shall Sound felt particularly resonant
The Principal, Geoff Ward, described the concert as “Absolutely superb Around a world première, John’s extraordinarily rich

and evocative work Elevation, composed of course for our anniversary event, we heard a spirited version of our new fanfare, a brilliant rendition of a Chopin Ballade by Angelus Blank, Ben Graves’ mesmeric new composition, and a canter through the highlights of Messiah that kept even those who, like me, had imbibed a generous glass from Rothschild’s cellars during the interval, excited It was all terrific and, coming hard on the heels of the very moving tribute to Leah Manning a few days earlier, kept up the rollercoaster momentum that has made this the genuinely culminating final stage of a year ’ s fantastic events ”

Embrace Cambridge
In 2016, George Clarke (BA Classics 2012) founded a student charity group to support the homeless population of Cambridge
Bringing together students from both the University of Cambridge and Anglia Ruskin, Embrace Cambridge works with local charities Jimmy’s Night Shelter and Wintercomfort to
provide necessary supplies, from sleeping bags to toothbrushes
The group works both on a fundraising basis, encouraging students from both universities to donate, and in a very practical way – bulk-buying supplies to minimise cost, and delivering them to the shelters where they can be used and distributed
Last winter, ‘Embrace Cambridge’ delivered over 1000 items of essential clothing and toiletries:
• 50 sleeping bags
• 792 pairs of thermal socks
• 240 pairs of regular socks
• 432 pairs of boxer shorts
• 168 pairs of thermal gloves
• 48 men ’ s beanie hats
• 38 blankets
• 432 toothbrushes
• 292 tubes of toothpaste
• 50 items of thermal underclothing
“I am continuing to support the work of students on this project, which remains a demonstration of the impact students can have on their city,” says George “I am very hopeful it will move from strength to strength ”

Leah Manning Celebration
On Tuesday, 20 November, member s of Homer ton gathered to celebrate the life and wor k of one of its most distinguished alumni, Dame Leah Manning. A student at the College between 1906 and 1908, Manning’s distinguished career focused relentlessly on redressing injustice, and she became well known for her courageous humanitar ian wor k She became President of the National Union of Teacher s in 1930, and was twice a Labour MP, in Islington and in Epping She was a pioneer of women ’ s r ights and a lifelong campaigner for education until her death in 1977
Manning is best known for her involvement in the Spanish Civil War of 1936–1939, dur ing which she almost single-handedly or ganised the evacuation of 3,886 children from Bilbao to Br itain on the steamship SS Habana The audience at the event included Her minio Mar tinez and Mar ia Luisa Toole , two of the ‘Niños’ evacuated as children by Manning in 1937, now in their nineties They both expressed their per sonal gr atitude to her, and to the Br itish people who sheltered them.
Their appreciation for Leah Manning was echoed by representatives from Bilbao’s Institute
for Remembr ance , Coexistence and Human Rights, known as Gogor a, who showed a moving documentar y about the exper iences of the evacuated children, featur ing a message of gr atitude to Leah Manning from the President of the Basque Gover nment
To honour Leah Manning’s legacy, the evening culminated in the unveiling of a memor ial plaque . Professor Geoff Ward, said: “This per manent memor ial is an oppor tunity to ensure that the students who follow Dame Leah Manning through Homer ton are aware of, and inspired by, her wor k for year s to come ”
A plaque in honour of Dame Leah Manning is to be displayed in the Mary Allan Building.

Ihave always loved Homerton, ever since first setting foot in the College back in 2013 – it almost instantaneously felt like home, and stole my heart But this past year has left an impression on me Perhaps it has something to do with being at the centre of it all, being able to make a difference to student life; maybe it’s because I’ve seen so many improvements being made to our facilities and buildings, such as the renovated gym and the new Griffin bar; or perhaps it is because of the huge milestone we have been celebrating, the 250th anniversary of free-thinking education at Homerton College: whatever the reason, this year I fell even more deeply in love with the place
The students here will never cease to amaze or impress me Even during my time as a student here, I found inspiration from the many achievements of those around me – and each year we seem to accumulate more and more successes at an exponential rate
This summer, for example, our students represented Homerton and the University in many different ways and across several continents The Charter Choir embarked on their annual Choir Tour, this year to the Czech Republic, where they gave seven performances in six locations over five days.
Two of our undergraduate students also spent time abroad representing Homerton this summer, coming second at the World Elite University Football tournament in China with the Cambridge University Association Football Club The Cambridge team beat teams from international Universities such as the University of Southern California and the National University of Seoul
The Homerton College Rugby Club also
spent time in China this summer competing in a 7s competition hosted by the Chinese Federation of University Sport, and also came second in the whole competition!
Of course, our students are used to showcasing their excellence a bit closer to home, as well as on the other side of the world Many of you, I’m sure, will have been fervently cheering on the Light Blues on 24 March this year, when Cambridge triumphed magnificently in the men ’ s, women ’ s and both reserve Boat Races The pride we felt that day at Homerton was heightened by the fact that we were cheering on four of our very own students: three in the women ’ s boat, and one in the men ’ s reserve boat
And while our students are, evidently, excelling within the realms of sport on a national and international platform, Homertonians are surpassing all expectations in many other ways as well
The 2018 Homerton May Ball, held in June, was the College’s biggest and arguably best ever A team of over 20 dedicated undergraduate and post-graduate students spent approximately nine months organising an incredible night of great food, beautiful music and exciting entertainment for over 1000 guests made up of students from across the University, as well as 250 Homerton alumni Not only was the ball a resounding success for the guests, but it was also successfully eco-friendly Our first ever Sustainability Officer kept the ball on track for a silver accreditation as per the Sustain-aBall criteria, and with the charitable donations collected going to national and international environmental and conservation charities such as Cool Earth and WWF, the ball was able to reach gold-level! All in all, it was an amazing way to celebrate the end of the academic year and the 250th anniversary of the College
As is clear from the May Ball charitable donations, charity is something we believe in very strongly at Homerton Many of our students sit on the committees of different Cambridge University branches of charities, raising money for some of the most significant causes of our time. This year, several of our students were representatives of the mental health charity, Student Minds Cambridge, supporting students through their studies and offering support whenever and wherever they may need it We are also represented within the Cambridge University Oxfam society, OxCAM, the charity CATS, dedicated to raising Cancer Awareness in Teenagers and Young People, and Pink Week, a Cambridge-studentrun campaign which raised over £35,000 for
eight different cancer charities in 2018. These are just a few of the many causes that our students go above and beyond to support.
Above all, however, our students are here because they are exceptional scholars 2018 marked the third year in a row with some of the best results that Homerton has ever seen In October we welcomed our third ever cohort of medicine students, alongside engineers, linguists, scientists and lawyers Homerton was once a College which was at the top of its league for the education of future teachers; it is now a College which is at the top of its league for the education of future leaders in all possible domains The spirit of excellence will, however, always live on within the walls of this great institution, established 250 years ago n

It is notewor thy that the Char ter
Choir, as one of Homer ton’s more recently established institutions at less than a decade old, has played a significant par t in the College’s 250th anniver sar y celebr ations this year In addition to its usual appear ances at the Char ter Dinner and regular ser vices at St John the Evangelist, Hills Road, the Choir perfor med at a special Foundation Chor al Evensong on 23 October as well as at the closing event of the Homer ton 250 year : a concer t on 24 November featur ing a selection of Homer tonian talent, including three new wor ks composed for the anniver sar y
Choir s come and go, ebb and flow, change shape and incar nation, and although it would take a hefty search through the College archives to know this definitively, it would be hard to imagine a time when there hasn’t been a choir of some descr iption at Homer ton over the past two and a half centur ies In more recent times, for example , some alumni may remember the Chor al Exhibitioner s ’ choir, led by Barbar a Pointon in the fir st decade of the 2000s A glance back to the pages of the 2008–9 issue of the Homer tonian reveals that the College Orchestr a and Choir regular ly used to join forces in perfor mance . Similar collabor ations have taken place in 2018 One of our Music students, Noah Poulson, conducted a selection of movements from Bach’s St Matthew Passion in the Lent Ter m Concer t And – to come
The Charter Choir at St Vitus Cathedral, Prague
full circle back to the 250 Concer t – the tr umpet did indeed sound to mar k the close of the year ’ s festivities on 24 November, with movements from Handel’s Messiah, perfor med under my baton by the Homer ton 250 Sinfonia and the Char ter Choir, augmented in number by alumni singer s The concer t also showcased a lot of new music , with the perfor mance of a piece for choir and str ing quar tet by Ben Gr aves (Darwin, PhD), winner of the Homer ton Composing Competition in 2018.
2018 also saw the Char ter Choir’s début perfor mance at Tr afalgar Square’s St Mar tin-in-theFields, with a perfor mance of Mozar t’s Requiem in May that resulted in a standing ovation for the Choir and the accompanying Br andenbur g Sinfonia It was also a pr ivilege to receive an invitation to perfor m Stainer’s Cr ucifixion at our sister institution in Oxford, Har r is Manchester College , at a concer t in March commemor ating the retirement of HMC’s Pr incipal, the Revd Dr Ralph Waller. Two other exter nal events are wor th mentioning: a tr ip to Guildford Cathedr al to sing Evensong in Apr il, featur ing Edward Bair stow’s Blessed City, Heavenly Salem; and an Evensong sung jointly with the Choir of Pembroke College (at Pembroke) in October, including Stanford’s Te Deum in B flat
As usual, the highlight of the year was the Choir’s summer tour, this year to the Czech Republic . Based in Pr ague for the best par t of a week, the Choir was excellent at following the Director of Music’s lead, though this actually included following me around on foot – not
always a sensible idea when car r ying concer t gear, and going up the side of a steep hill, in 30 degree heat. Never theless, there were some wonderful perfor mances as well as tour ist oppor tunities. Among them were a rendition of Vier ne ’ s Messe Solennelle in St Vitus Cathedr al, a boat tr ip along the River Vltava, a guided tour of the wor ldfamous ossuar y in Sedlec (Kutná Hor a), and a perfor mance in the beautiful Baroque city of Olomouc , or ganised by Homer ton’s own Fellow in Education Philip Stephenson through his links to the univer sity there
The last Choir event of 2018 was the annual carol ser vice , this year attended by member s of the 1768 Society 2019 will br ing plenty more excitement, including a tr ip to Coventr y Cathedr al, a tour to the Auver gne region of Fr ance , and a new CD recording watch this space!
As ever, alumni are most welcome at Char ter Choir ser vices and concer ts, full details of which can be found on our website at www homer ton.cam.ac .uk/char terchoir. Alumni are also encour aged to follow the Char ter Choir on their Facebook page , at www.facebook.com/ homchar terchoir n

Rugby 2018 report
China tour
In September, HCRFC was lucky enough to send 11 players to Xi’an for a week of rugby and cultural exchange. We arrived after an 11-hour flight with very little idea what to expect – we didn’t know who we were meeting, where we were going in the city, or, to be honest, if the whole thing was even real
I can honestly say that what followed was one of the greatest and most surreal weeks of my life From an opening ceremony with over 2000 spectators and synchronised dance routines, to unicycling schoolchildren, to tandem bike racing around the city walls, the week went from spectacle to spectacle. We were made to feel welcome wherever we went by our hosts and the locals and got to see the sights Xi’an had to offer With game hats off, we also had a full week of cultural exchanges During the day, we were lucky enough to visit the Museum of Traditional Chinese medicine, several local Buddhist sites, local schools and universities, the Muslim market district, and the awe-inspiring Terracotta Army. In the evenings we were left to our own devices and saw the more personal side of Xi’an We were able to meet several local people and experience different aspects of the local culture All told, I think we gained a wider perspective and some little insight into a very different culture
In terms of rugby, we played a series of sevens games against Chinese teams and Portsmouth University 1st XV. We finished runners-up to the Portsmouth team after some strong performances by all in very hot conditions. We trained hard and were careful in preparing right for each game with dedicated planning/tactics
sessions in the hotel Special mention should go to Eric Robinson for his dynamic running, Nathan Johns for his defensive efforts, and Jamey Chaudhry for his all-round work ethic and positive attitude. Likewise, the elders of the team, Cameron Pearce and Chagall Caprez, deserve recognition for the dedication and effort they have poured into HCRFC over their time in College, both on and off the pitch At this point I would also like to extend the team’s gratitude to Stewart Eru for being an excellent organiser, coach, and babysitter; he is the reason the tour went ahead and was a big part of the success it turned out to be.
The tour is perhaps best summed up by two quotes, one from Jamey, a second-year engineer, and one from Stewart Eru himself
“I cannot believe how much fun we have had on this trip We’ve trained hard in the Chinese heat and battled against the locals and fellow tourists alike and ultimately were delighted to come second. A huge part of it for me has been throwing myself enthusiastically into the various cultural exchanges with other Chinese students It truly has been an eye opening and heartening honour to represent both Homerton and the University as a whole on the international stage A big thanks to our hosts, College, and of course the legend that is Stewart Eru for this amazing experience Up the Griffins!”
Jamey
Chaudhry
‘’The 4th UK-China Sports Week was a great success from a variety of angles: firstly, to help promote and develop rugby in China, which is in its infancy but has huge appetite to grow and secondly to promote Homerton College
and the Homerton International Programme. For many of the Homerton players it was their first taste of an international tournament and being on live TV (broadcast on J-Sports which has over 100m subscribers) but they played extremely well in the hot conditions and finished runners-up which was an excellent result The team also participated in outreach at local schools and universities and were fantastic ambassadors for the College The British Council in China and the Federation for University Sport in China have conveyed their sincerest thanks to Homerton College for their participation in the week-long event
The Homerton International Programme now has a new agreement also with the Xi’an International Foreign Studies University to send students on the 2019 Homerton International Programme which is another positive result from this trip. I hope these mutually beneficial international exchanges continue in the future as they are incredibly well received both by the hosts and the students that participate ’’ Stewart ‘Bus’ Eru
College seasons & Cuppers
Under Cameron Pearce, in the academic year 2017/2018, the College team maintained their position in division 3/5 despite some issues with numbers. In Cuppers, the highlight was perhaps the 8–0 victory over Jesus in an extremely tense away game with 40 Jesus supporters to our four (ours out-chanted theirs) We were able to make it to the 2nd division Cuppers final against Downing where, despite a good effort, we were beaten by a better drilled team
In the new academic year so far, the team has solidly maintained its position in league 3 despite a few games a man short There is a particularly good intake of Freshers this year and the club atmosphere is going strong. We have another league next term before the Cuppers campaign begins again
James Mocata
Lacrosse
The Homerton Heroes achieved so much this season, scoring high in the first division of the League and making it to the final of Cuppers Everyone worked so hard during practice on our lovely pitches to be able to implement slick new skills into every match. The passion for the game is evident among the squad, from PhD students to Freshers With every leaver, to whom we must take the opportunity to pay the utmost respects for their service, we have seen arise a future young Hero to take their place, chomping at the bit for some sweet lax action Looking to the fresh season ahead, the team hopes to finally achieve ultimate lacrosse status of dual winners of the league and of Cuppers – a high, but realistic aim, achievable through believing in one ’ s own ability, having courage to act, and trusting deeply in one another The bond between Heroes is a unique one, and as players pass through our ranks, they pass on into a new family of lacrosse legends
Maddy Green
Cricket
The 2018 season was a frustrating one for Homerton Cricket Club, which was only able to play two games due to weather and opposition cancellations Despite a number of new additions including hard-hitting allrounder Sam Hoar and wristy batsman Affar Ali-Qureshi, Homerton unfortunately failed to get through their group with one huge win against Wolfson and a narrow defeat to Pembroke Wolfson proved unable to handle the fierce new-look Griffins bowling attack, with both Nasir Macadam and Simanta Adhikari picking up key wickets and Eric Robinson taking a magnificent catch to dismiss Wolfson for under 100, which was easily chased down Despite another strong bowling display against Pembroke with a makeshift fielding unit, the Homerton boys were unable to capitalise on a strong start from their opening partnership, particularly captain Nathan Johns, as George Boughton failed to hit a six off the last ball. With a number of new recruits
for the 2019 season and a much more rigorous training schedule, HCCC will be aiming to bounce back next season.
Oscar Wilson
Football 1sts
The Homerton Griffins First XI took great momentum into the 2017–18 campaign from the previous season in which they had stormed to the Division 3 title undefeated Optimism was only fuelled with the arrival of powerful centre-backs
Sam Hoar and Sam Sayer, future Blues centreforward Kosi Nwuba, and Oli Gorman, (also known as ‘PGCEdinho’) James Hayes also joined the squad
Despite a Cuppers defeat to Blues-heavy Girton and an unjust 3–2 reverse away to Caius early in the season, the Griffs soon began to squawk in unison as they ran through Michaelmas undefeated at home in the league: Goalkeeper Oscar Wilson’s last-minute equaliser to salvage a point against Emma will live long in the memory. If mental toughness, a winning mentality and routeone to Kosi symbolised term one, ‘totaalvoetbal’ was the order of the day after the winter break as Homerton surged to the top of Division 2 The highlight of this run was the away victory over St John’s who felt the wrath of Nwuba et al as Homerton scored five on a cold February morning Alas, an unfortunate 3–2 defeat away to Trinity on the final matchday of the season saw the Griffins miss out on promotion on goal difference. The team will seek vengeance next season
Sam Hoar
Football 2nds
Last season was a standout one for Homerton 2nds. They dominated their league, winning it comfortably, while also achieving an outrageous run to the plate final, beating teams top of the league above and two leagues above in the quarter and semi-finals to get there With not much to do all season Sam ‘the wall’ Burry stepped into the spotlight to make two saves in the shootout in the
semi against Fitzwilliam 2nds Captain Ben Shergold kept the team tight and the trainings intense all season. With promotion won the league this year will be much tougher, but inspired by the legacy of legends such as Ricky Hibble and Sam Murray, and the core of the team remaining the same, we should be on for another great year
Danny Cronin
Frisbee
The Homerton Frisbee team has had a very successful year, finishing second overall in the first division of the College league. We also managed to come fourth in the summer Cuppers tournament, beating teams from many other colleges In the Michaelmas term 2018 we have gained lots of new players and are doing really well with only one loss and four wins in the league so far
Lizzie Hawking
Tennis
Homerton tennis had a very good year, with our first team coming second overall in Division 1 of the College league The second team had a hard time in Division 3 but still managed to finish in the middle of the group During the Lent and Easter terms there was also a Cuppers tournament where we made it through to the quarter-finals before sadly being knocked out.

Basketball
Homerton’s newly created women ’ s basketball team will play its first league games in January 2019 – we look forward to reporting their results in these pages next year
The men ’ s team managed to stay in Division 3 at the end of Lent, but was unfortunately relegated at the end of Michaelmas. Both men ’ s and women ’ s teams are looking for a strong upcoming year!

Rowing
Homerton College Boat Club (HCBC) had a good May campaign with both W1 and W2 going up three, and a W3 boat entered for the first time in many years, bumping on their second day. M1 went up one and M2 was on the rise before sadly getting over-bumped and going down two in the final rankings
On 16 June, HCBC celebrated its 40th anniversary with the formalisation of its new partnership with City of Cambridge Rowing Club (CCRC), announcing the construction of a new boathouse shared with CCRC for May 2019
The recruitment campaign in Michaelmas term was outstanding, with the club welcoming more than 50 novices in total Both men and women are entering a senior VIII and two novice VIIIs for Fairbairns – a first for the club Michaelmas term was also very successful for the men with many new seniors joining the club and their novices entering an VIII in both Emma Sprints and Clare Novice Regatta Both senior crews are looking very strong, training hard over the past term for the upcoming Fairbairns Cup HCBC is looking forward to showing their true colours on the river Cam and beyond this year

What a year! Throughout the excitement and intensity of our long Anniversary Year, Homerton not only showed the best of itself but showed the world the best of Cambridge This was no mean feat for Cambridge’s newest College, and we took great pride in showing what a Cambridge College can do, and what it can be, when pomp and tradition and gowns and Latin are put to one side, letting our core values of excellence, relevance and service to society take centre stage
The Development Office was both the bridge and the engine room of the celebrations, setting the course and burning the (midnight) fuel, and the team tackled the challenge with creativity, persistence and dedication. I might say “teams” plural, since by the end of the year new recruits had replaced various people who had moved on during 2018 – Christopher, Laura, Max and Helen taking the reins from Erin, Amy, Rebekah and Clare To all of them I am hugely grateful – a talented and impressive bunch
The objective of the celebrations was primarily to explain and showcase Homerton to a public audience – people who might not know the College at all – so the core programme of events was open for free to all comers. Alumni of course were prominent throughout, both as participants (the panel of alumni theatre directors at our Shakespeare event was particularly impressive) and as attendees A turbo-charged and wellattended London alumni reception took place this year in the Oxford and Cambridge Club, with a presentation from artist Shezad Dawood on the public art he is designing to accompany our new
dining hall, and the 250th Anniversary Alumni Reunion Weekend (page 58) in September was especially memorable.
The themes of the anniversary year were distinctively Homertonian, which helped us clarify why this special College is worthy of your support As alumni you need two reasons to support us – an appreciation of what Homerton did for you when you were here, combined with a confidence in the College’s capacity to make a difference for the current and future generations Homerton has never been better equipped for this task – boosted by some fantastic new projects on the near horizon.
So what can we expect in 2019? The big news is the Student Support Initiative, which engages every College as well as the University Collectively we aim to raise £500 million for three priorities which have become universally pressing for us all: undergraduate access, postgraduate funding, and student life and wellbeing. As Cambridge’s biggest College with active populations of both undergraduate and graduate students, these priorities are central to Homerton’s mission and we will be enthusiastic participants in the campaign
Undergraduate access and postgraduate funding need little explanation: we need to attract and support the most talented students regardless of their means On the third priority –student life and wellbeing – Homerton has three visionary projects starting in 2019 that will put us in the front rank for providing an exceptional student experience.
The new boathouse and sports fields (page 10) will give Homerton the best sports facilities of any Cambridge College – that’s quite an achievement and is so important when academic work is so intense
And the new Homerton Changemakers programme to be unfurled this year (page 8) is truly transformative: open to all our students, it will equip them both to be masters of their own selves, and to use their skills, knowledge and character to make a
positive impact on the world You will hear much more about these projects during 2019 and beyond – please be assured that your College is constantly innovating to ensure the best possible provision for our students, and the world of today n

All stayed until retirement in the late 1980s, together accumulating more than 70 year s of ser vice Each was for tunate enough to enjoy more than 30 year s of retirement: David with his wife Olga r unning a B&B , Jennifer growing apples, and Jean in her native New Zealand, active in all manner of char ity wor k
For tune smiled on this gener ation of Homer ton lecturer s, who, passionate about their subjects, wrought a profound influence on many hundreds of young Homer ton B .Ed. students, many of whom car r ied the same enthusiasm into the classroom And there lies the incredible Homer ton legacy, extending out over the gener ations, touching in the end thousands of young lives We do indeed celebr ate their achievements and rejoice in their contr ibution, not just to Homer ton, but to society as a whole
Meanwhile the retired Senior Member s of Homer ton go about their business as usual, also
enjoying their retirement and contr ibuting to society, while at the same time suppor ting each other. At the AGM in September we asked for more help on the Committee . We have been par ticular ly for tunate consequently in gaining the ser vices of Sue Conr ad, who many will remember as the Bur sar ’ s Secretar y, who wor ked so hard in the application process for our Royal Char ter in 2010 Her skills are par ticular ly valuable on our Committee , but she has also, in her spare time , been cataloguing in the new College Archive the minutes of countless meetings that r an over sever al year s, dr afting Statutes and Ordinances, negotiating with the Univer sity, all vital records of the College and its most recent metamor phosis Libby Jared is another wor ker on the RSM Committee whose magic on the computer produces our Newsletter In the 1980s, as young lecturer, I remember attending an inser vice tr aining day given by Libby, and listening incredulously to her explanation of how to add ‘attachments’ to email. “Why?” I asked, “would you ever want to do THAT? It will never catch on. ” Her patience and gr aphic skills are a great boon to us We are blessed now with a sizeable committee , suppor ted by the Development Office , who circulate our member s by email, yes, occasionally with ‘attachments’, including our calendar of social events so much appreciated by member s Long may it continue n

Intro text?
MRS CHRIS RACE (NÉE DAUBNEY)
CertEd 1966–68,
Chr is was born on 2 January 1948.
Chris greatly enjoyed her time at Homerton and felt it gave her a wonderful foundation for her long, hugely successful career in teaching She taught mathematics for over 30 years at schools in Nottinghamshire taking various posts of responsibility including Head of House and Child Protection Co-ordinator In later years she gained a Master’s Degree in Education from Nottingham University.
She married Dave soon after leaving College and together they spent many years renovating two stables with a Reading Room above in Heath, a small Derbyshire village on the Chatsworth Estate During this time they made many friends with others working on similar projects in the village For many years they supported the village Well Dressing before building and dressing their own ‘well’ in their garden.
Chris and Dave loved France and spent many holidays there, so it came as no surprise when they embarked on another major renovation project, this time in Brittany, where they bought a small house They enjoyed the rural traditions in both Brittany and Derbyshire until Dave’s untimely death in 2005 Chris and Dave had many common interests and were always together, so the following years proved very difficult for her. She travelled far and wide with family and friends visiting Asia, New Zealand, USA and the Caribbean, developed a taste for cruises and
became an enthusiastic volunteer at Hardwick Hall
Her sudden death in October 2017, following a fall at her home in Heath, came as a massive shock to all who knew her

MRS JEAN FOXCROFT (NÉE NUTTALL)
CertEd 1948–50
Jean was brought up on the family farm near Heywood, Lancashire and ventured south to train as a teacher at Homerton
She always spoke fondly of her time at Homerton, saying: “We northerners had been specially selected by Miss Skillicorn to add some grit to the College!”
She used to talk about the strict rules on male visitors and about having to pull the bed into the corridor when a man was visiting.
She also regaled us with stories of falling into the Cam from a punt, and dancing at balls with the likes of former politician Norman St JohnStevas The experiences at Homerton no doubt helped her to become the strong independent woman that she was
She taught at The Royal School for the Blind in York, before returning to the Greater Manchester area where she met her husband Fred, a fellow teacher, both of them ending up teaching at Siddall Moor High School in Heywood.
She enjoyed keeping in touch with former students and latterly attended reunions both in Cambridge and Manchester
One of her close friends was fellow student Ruth Pearson, whom she visited every Saturday without fail, after Ruth had been diagnosed with dementia She visited even when Ruth no longer recognised her
She enjoyed going on cruises with old friends, and embraced new technology Always up for a challenge, she learnt to swim in her 50s, to use a computer in her 70s and set up a Facebook profile in her 80s
Jean is survived by her daughter, Gillian, and grandchildren Emily and Owen.

MRS PHYLLIS EASDALE
CertEd 1945–47
Phyllis Easdale was born on 21 August 1921. She came up to Homerton immediately after the war to complete her training, and met her husband, a student at Christ’s, while in Cambridge
In the 1950s Phyllis combined the upbringing of her own three sons with the creation and management of a local nursery school. She subsequently taught at Holy Trinity School in Sunningdale, Berkshire, and completed a BA through the Open University
Phyllis remained committed to education throughout her life, serving as Chair of South Grange nursery school, Ascot for over 25 years, and spending many years as Deputy Chair of Governors at Swinley School, also in Ascot
Phyllis attended many Homerton reunions over the years. After she was widowed in 1988 she travelled extensively, and lived independently until Christmas 2017. She died on 21 January 2018 at the age of 92, following a stroke

EFFA OKUPA
CertEd 1959–61
Effa Okupa, who has died aged 82, was a professor of law whose speciality was African customary law, especially of matrilineal tribes
She was a visiting professor at the University of Namibia (Unam) and was instrumental in establishing the law faculty there In 2006 she published a book, Carrying the Sun on Our Backs: Unfolding German Colonialism in Namibia from Caprivi to Kasikili
Born in Esan, in Edo State, Nigeria, to Dominic, a nurse, and Christiana Okupa, she received her secondary education at Queen of Apostles college, Kakuri, Kaduna, before coming to the UK to train as a teacher – first, in 1957, at Bedford College of Physical Education, and then at Homerton, where she lodged with the anthropologists Jack and Esther Goody, establishing a lifelong relationship.
She began teaching in 1961 at schools in London From 1971 to 1988 she taught at Copeland school in Wembley, then embarked upon a London external law degree, having completed an Open University degree in 1979
Having passed the London external LLB in 1989, Effa took her master’s at UCL (1990), then her PhD at what is now SOAS University of London (1996). Her fieldwork took her to Namibia, where she worked among the traditional communities, but especially the marginalised Ovahimba From 1998 to 2009 she was visiting senior lecturer in customary law at Unam, then visiting professor of customary law from 2010, latterly emeritus
Her base remained London, and from 2000 she joined the Sacred Law group, an informal collection of historians and lawyers interested in questions associated with religious laws, meeting at SOAS
Effa’s interest in the legal and social features of matrilineal societies intensified and, late in life, she organised a research trip to a remote part of China to study the matrilineal system there She was working on a book on the subject at the time of her death
Effa encouraged her brightest Unam law students to study in London for a few months, despite the formidable hurdles She arranged for the academic lawyers Dame Hazel Genn and Stephen Guest, and the philosopher Joe Wolff, to work with her students. This stimulus helped one of them win a Rhodes scholarship to Oxford
Effa is survived by her son, Kwesi, from a marriage that ended in divorce

REGINALD FRED NORMAN
CBE, 1928–2018
Born in Eyam, Derbyshire, Reginald Norman lived most of his life in Cambridge before moving to St Albans to be nearer family. He was a Trustee at Homerton and was appointed to the Finance and General Purposes Committee around the time Kate Pretty was appointed Principal and Gale Bryan Bursar He retired from the Board in 1999 but stayed on the Garden Committee for another five years (2004) He is survived by his three children, Alan, Diana, and Brian, and three grandchildren

GEOFFREY MORRIS
1936–2018
Geoff Morris, who has died aged 82, had a distinguished career as Cambridgeshire’s Chief Education Officer between 1976 and 1991 During his term of office the county became a leading education authority with innovations that achieved national acclaim He also served as a Trustee of Homerton during the 1970s and 1980s
Geoff was born in the Lancashire town of St Helens to Mary, a teacher, and her husband, Thomas, who owned and ran a local confectioner’s shop, and cafe. He went to Ampleforth College, Yorkshire, before studying at Cambridge in the 1950s
He began his career as a teacher near Liverpool and moved into local government in the early 1960s After working in London and West Hartlepool, he became an education officer for the city of Cambridge in 1966, living there for the rest of his life.
As Chief Education Officer, he pioneered the idea of the local management of schools (LMS), which gave them more autonomy and allowed them to control their own budgets
It was a high pressure job with long hours and, in 1991, at the age of 55, he decided to take a change of direction that would give him a bit more free time while he was still relatively young
After pursuing a new vocation as a careers counsellor, Geoff finally retired aged 65, after which he enthusiastically pursued many interests, including sport, jazz, languages and travel
A man of great warmth and humanity, at the age of 80 he made a solo trip around Argentina and Chile – a journey that typified his spirit of adventure and determination to live life to the full
He married Janet Duggins, a teacher, after they met in the 1950s at a jazz club in Cambridge. She died in 2015. He is survived by their four children, Hannah, Laura, Tom and Daniel, and four grandchildren

CHARLES BAILEY
1924–2017
Charles Bailey was appointed as Senior Lecturer in Philosophy of Education at Homerton College Cambridge in 1964
In due course he became both Head of the Education Department and Senior Tutor of the college, retiring in 1986. He died on Christmas Eve 2017 aged 93.
Although he would have disliked the epithet ‘self-made’, Charles did, throughout his life, progress largely through his own efforts Charles attended his local elementary school in Southend and was one of the few in his year-group to be entered for the scholarship examination to go to a grammar school Much to his surprise he passed, but his mother reluctantly decided that she couldn’t afford to send him.
With the advent of war Charles, as soon as he was old enough, volunteered with Air Raid Precautions, joining the Air Training Corps in 1941 and quickly becoming a warrant officer In addition to fostering his life-long love of and skills in mechanical engineering, he was able to take advantage of tuition preparing for a special examination for services personnel whose education had been disrupted by wartime service – the Forces Preliminary Examination.
Having qualified, he taught successfully for two years at Westleigh Primary School in Leigh-onSea but had growing reservations about the ethos generated by eleven-plus selection and applied for a post at the Southend Open Air School for physically disabled pupils and others with chronic health conditions Here, in due course he became deputy head whilst also studying part-time for an external London degree
Surprised by his 1st, he was emboldened to apply for a headship and was appointed in 1960 as head teacher of the Phoenix Special School in Stepney Whilst there, he embarked on a new field of academic study – the philosophy of education – at the University of London Institute of Education
Charles took up the post of Senior Lecturer in Philosophy of Education at Homerton in September 1964 In addition to his directly academic achievements, Charles had a formative influence on the long succession of contested changes through which Homerton moved towards convergence with Cambridge University Charles along with Dame Beryl Paston Brown, was the person chiefly responsible for making it possible for highachieving Homerton students to take their B Ed as external students of the University of London Subsequently, working with both Alison Shrubsole and Paul Hirst, Charles helped guide the negotiations through which two successive versions of a Cambridge B.Ed were brought into existence Following the retirement of Tom Simms as Head of Education and Senior Tutor in the mid-1970s, Charles was the unchallenged candidate to fill both positions – roles which he held until his retirement in 1986 and which he performed with dedication and distinction
