HOW YOU CAN HELP US

30

THE MASTER I and the College community of pupils, colleagues, parents and Old Marlburians are immensely grateful for the generous contributions of donors, both in terms of financial gifts and in the support and time which they give us.

I do hope that you will want to be involved and join us in two projects which are at the very heart of Marlborough’s vision: fundraising for bursaries which prove life-changing for our pupils in so many cases; and for our Science Campaign which seeks to rework the Newton and Science buildings in addition to creating a ground-breaking Innovation Centre – our

intention is that this will propel the College to the forefront of the educational agenda and re-establish Marlborough as a school of academic ambition and weight.

With the generosity and support of donors, I feel sure that Marlborough will not only compete but will set itself apart as the best co-educational boarding school in the UK. Louise Moelwyn-Hughes Master

CHAIRMAN OF COUNCIL These are exciting times for Marlborough with the appointment and direction of a new Master combined with plans for a capital fundraising programme for Science, Technology and Innovation. Marlborough paved the way for the uptake of Science as an academic discipline in the 19th century and is now responding to the seismic changes in technology and innovation in the 21st.

I am delighted to thank you for your loyal and generous support this year. Your past investment in us has resulted in making the Memorial Hall once again a first-class performance venue which serves both the school population as well as the local community.

Equally, we rely on your generosity to grow our Bursary Programme, widening access to the school and diversifying our pupil body. You will read in the pages of this report what a life-changing difference a bursary can make to a talented young person.

Similarly our outreach programme’s partnership with local schools is having an extraordinary social impact.

We remain true to our charitable roots in trying to forge social change and in preparing young minds for the rigours and challenges of global citizenship.

On behalf of us all, thank you.

BURSARIES APPEAL THE IMPACT OF YOUR SUPPORT

To achieve our founding mission to provide exceptional education for young people from all walks of life, we depend on the generous support of individuals. We want to help bright young people realise their potential, regardless of their parents’ income; the ability to pay school fees should be no barrier to entry.

We offer bursaries because we know that the academic, sporting and creative opportunities at Marlborough have a transformative impact on our young people. Our Bursary Programme and outreach work with local state schools benefit the whole College community by providing an inclusive educational environment for all pupils.

2018/19

• A total of 114 pupils currently receive bursarial support = 12% of the school population • 7 new bursary places have been allocated since last year • 15 pupils are now on full bursaries • We aim to increase fully funded bursary places by 40% in 2022 = 20 fully funded places

In addition, Marlborough College has offered two annual Sixth Form bursaries, starting from 2021, when the first cohort of Grammar Stream pupils is in Year 12. Successful recipients of these awards will be very familiar with Marlborough College, and will be well known to us. There is, therefore, a very good chance that these bursaries will be successful, and life-changing.

BURSARIES APPEAL READING BUDDIES AT SWINDON ACADEMY

Throughout the year, approximately 24 Marlborough College pupils visit both of the Swindon Academy Primary Schools, as part of a Reading Buddies programme. Many of the primary pupils at our partnership school will come from homes with no, or few, books, and they may well have parents/ carers who may not value reading. Pupils at both schools gain much from participation in this activity.

There is a great need for projects such as this one if the long-standing gap in the educational attainment between those pupils from the most disadvantaged and most advantaged backgrounds is to be bridged.

This “educational attainment gap” starts early and widens as education progresses (The Sutton Trust, May 2009), and has a direct impact on access into the

12

leading professions because disadvantaged pupils are less likely to have the academic qualifications that employers desire. There is a 19-month “school readiness” gap between the richest and poorest children at age five. By the age of 16, Department for Education statistics show that children eligible for free school meals achieve grades 20-30% lower at GCSE than those not eligible for free school meals.

Disadvantaged children are not only less likely to achieve the academic qualifications they need to go to university, they are also less likely to choose subjects that offer a path to the most prestigious university places and professions (The Sutton Trust, The Class Ceiling, January 2017).

One participant in the Reading Buddies programme is also a current Year 12 bursary pupil at the College, and he writes:

“Coming to Swindon Academy each week has been a fantastic experience. I have had the chance to read with some of the primary school children here and to develop within them a love of reading. The best part is establishing a genuine relationship with the children. I feel that this is a two-way process: they work on their reading skills, and I work on my teaching skills. I like talking to the children about the books that we read, asking them questions that make them think. I hope that I have inspired them to keep reading throughout their lives and read about subjects that they are passionate about. Maybe one day they will be reading to children like I am now!”

BURSARIES APPEAL FUTURE BURSARY RECIPIENTS www.royalspringboard.org.uk

The Royal National Children’s SpringBoard Foundation has been in existence since 2012.

Building on a model first developed by the Arnold Foundation for Rugby School in 2003, Royal National SpringBoard seeks to provide bursaries which cover the entire cost of a private, boarding education to children who come from economically and socially disadvantaged backgrounds.

SpringBoard identifies suitable candidates for the scheme through a network of partner organisations – commonly charities that work within local communities

here. They have made enduring friendships and have embraced life in both House and the wider school.

One of the boys, Barton Hill’s Terry Ventre, spoke movingly to an audience of over one hundred adults at a SpringBoard conference about his time at Marlborough. He explained that he had initially wondered whether life here would suit him or not, but that by the end of his first term he was beginning to make friendships every bit as strong as those he had at home. It is the welcoming, inclusive nature of Marlborough that makes the process work.

In addition, there are practical and very necessary improvements such as toilet facilities, a most agreeable curved Green Room, impressive new lighting, air conditioning and heating, and provision of a single-size versatile performing area.

The issue of acoustics was at the very forefront of discussions and planning and indeed, Neil Woodger, our acoustician was most particular in ensuring that the challenges of an unusual space were given maximum consideration, which has been delivered to excellent effect.

Once I received details of the 1843 Society from the Development Office explaining the work it does, I was convinced that I should leave a legacy in my Will. Legacy bequests are vital to Marlborough’s ambition to continue to provide first-class teaching and facilities as well as enabling children from a wide variety of backgrounds to attend the College and benefit from everything that comes with this.

To that end I would like to encourage all members of the Marlborough community to consider leaving a

OUR PLANS

The biggest project to be undertaken for at least a

COLLEGE DEVELOPMENT PLAN

and in this case we have taken great care to make

The College is in a particularly busy phase of its development. Last summer saw the completion of several projects including Dancy House and the Memorial Hall.

Dancy House opened its doors in September and the girls have quickly established themselves in their new home. The building itself is a triumph of spectacular design. Andrew Nevin from the architects Allies and Morrison has created a beautiful building. On the outside there is a mix of brickwork in the tradition of Flemish bond, a feature of Marlborough architecture, together with oak shutters and window surrounds, all finished with a roof of crisp lines and off-set gables, a hallmark of Allies and Morrison. Inside the house is just a wonderful place to live, spacious and comfortable with a feeling of calm.

The Memorial Hall was an immensely complicated project that tested even the highly experienced and world-class design team, including our UK and Canadian architects and New York based acoustician.

The final result is a spectacular transformation into an outstanding performance space for many uses. The acoustics have been improved beyond measure and already there have been tributes from leading musicians who have been delighted to perform in

generation will be the development of Science and Innovation. The road to discernment is sometimes long sure that we know exactly what is needed and what can be afforded. We have decided to move away from the creation of a whole new building and rather to transform the existing Science buildings. A new space will be created for Design Technology, to be renamed Innovation, as it takes on the broader and hugely exciting new opportunities presented by the new technologies and design disciplines.

Newton’s designs for the Science building still represent the best laboratories for our needs. They encapsulate space and light within a building that is just extraordinary, hence very important as a historic and listed structure. We have given the project to Andrew Nevin again. He together with a team including interior designers are to make Newton and the science buildings into the best available, something that no new building could offer. Newton should be excited by what awaits!

Whilst these major projects are taking place the refurbishment of the College’s boarding houses continues with Preshute finishing this summer and Cotton starting a two-year project. This is all part of the process that has been ongoing for over eight years.

Cotton is the tenth House to be developed, representing nearly two-thirds of the total. The results to date have been really encouraging and have included some very imaginative changes to improve the way in which each House functions. Each project is no simple task in terms of complexity and scale.

All of this comes at a substantial financial commitment.

At present around £60 million has been spent on the development programme. The science and innovation project together with House refurbishments over the next three years will take the total to over £80 million.

By the time all the Houses have been completed and remaining projects addressed the figure is expected

MARLBOROUGH’S VISION FOR SCIENCE AND INNOVATION

Marlborough College intends to equip its pupils with the skills and confidence to face the challenges of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, which brings with it advanced robotics, autonomous transport, artificial intelligence, biotechnology and genomics. Taking a different approach from other schools, we will focus on innovation as a contemporary educational philosophy, rather than just creating a new building. We want to be bold.

Firstly, we will transform the iconic Newton building together with the North and South wings, where we currently teach the sciences of Physics, Chemistry and Biology. Secondly, we propose a new purpose-built Innovation Centre on the site

20

of the Kennet building to accommodate the diverse

East Elevation

and evolving disciplines of modern technologies and applied science.

The principle of a new Innovation Centre not only provides accommodation for these subjects, but also symbiotically enables the development of Science to be realised. The construction of the Innovation Centre allows the subject of Design Technology to be removed from the existing footprint of the Science complex, which will release valuable space.

This, together with significant reconfiguration of the Newton building, will create a Science Department that is no larger than the current buildings, but infinitely more generous.

Allies and Morrison have been commissioned to carry out the work, the latest in a series of projects they have undertaken at Marlborough.

THE NEWTON BUILDING

In the Newton building, we will maintain the inherent quality and character of the building, while promoting a move toward a centre for Science, a dramatic sequence of spaces designed to promote excitement and identity for the subject.

We will create a radically different experience by redesigning those buildings involved. Improving the quality of the circulation spaces will provide a more dynamic learning environment, as well as addressing the sense of a department that is lacking today.

To integrate those buildings into their context and regenerate the wider area will ensure sustainability and longevity which stand the test of time.

The congested corridors and complex lecture theatres make way for a dramatic triple height Science Centre space within the centre of the Newton; a foyer opens to an adjacent garden room and connects to the exhibition space above via a bold new spiral staircase.

This overlapping of uses within space will serve to intensify the relationships between departments in a meaningful way.

HOW YOU CAN HELP US JAN PERRINS DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR

Over the last five years the sum of your donations has had a significant impact on Marlburians as all gifts to Marlborough College Foundation go directly toward making Marlborough College an even better place to live and learn.

Marlborough was founded on philanthropy and those of you who have already given continue the tradition, paving the way for future success.

GIVING CAN TAKE MANY FORMS If you would like to join those Old Marlburians, present and past parents, and friends, in supporting our Bursary Fund, the Science and Innovation Centre, or an area of Greatest Need, there are many ways in which you can help (see below). We also have a new

30

website which I would encourage you to visit.

Regular gifts: these can be made by standing order on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis.

One-off gifts: you can make a secure one-off donation by credit or debit card, online or by post and by

cheque made payable to Marlborough College Trust.

Overseas gifts: Donors in the US and Hong Kong can make tax-efficient gifts through the British Schools and Universities Foundation (BSUF) and the HK Charitable Foundation. Marlborough College also works with Trans Giving Europe which enables tax-effective cross-border cash donations in Europe.

If you live overseas but still pay some UK tax then we may also be able to claim Gift Aid.

Shares: Making a charitable gift of shares is a highly

tax-efficient way of donating and we are very grateful to receive gifts in this form.

Assets: Marlborough College is a registered charity

and does not pay tax on gifts of land or property given to us.

We would be delighted to hear from you if you would like to find out more about the Foundation and its goals, and how you may be able to help in other ways.

Supporting Marlborough isn’t all about making a financial gift. Our Ambassadors are people that give their time, energy and support to help us in our work and are an essential part of raising awareness. We are also very interested in your views so please do visit us in the Development Office for a chat.

The level of support we have had to date has been transformational and made the school and even better place for our pupils to thrive and develop.

Thank you.
