The College is committed to building strong partnerships with independent and state schools. These partnerships raise aspirations across both sectors for schools, teachers and students, and help address educational need within our community. The College’s partnerships priorities include primary and secondary school partnerships and teacher training, and particularly support for primary enrichment at a difficult time.
SSLP: The Southwark Schools’ Learning Partnership (SSLP), of which the Master is a co-director, is a unique collaboration between eighteen local schools based in, and around, the London Borough of Southwark. In 2021-22, SSLP ran several key partnerships initiatives that greatly benefited pupils: • Mock Interviews: provided 74 maintained sector pupils with interview practice. • Oxbridge Pilot: provided 37 pupils with Maths, Law, English, History and PPE courses for Oxbridge preparation. • Aspiring Senior Leaders’ Training: upskilled 58 staff to become senior leaders at their schools. Supporter Focus: We are deeply grateful that Dulwich College supporters Michael and Deborah Fiddy contributed to the SSLP Pupil Voice Mental Health Project in 2021-22. Three pupil groups worked on social action projects to make a difference to mental wellbeing in their own schools. For example, students from Alleyn’s, The Charter School East Dulwich and St Saviour’s and St Olave’s school produced leaflets on anxiety, bullying, friendship and panic attacks, which will all be available to SSLP schools. “We are delighted to help fund the SSLP Student Voice Mental Health Project. Projects like this are even more essential to our young people’s wellbeing in light of recent lockdowns, and we are delighted to see this crucial work being undertaken by students at SSLP schools, both state and independent, across south London.”
