features of OAs is that they can talk to anyone, without deferring or condescending, and I believe Dulwich is at its strongest when it has a social diversity that helps to prepare pupils for the great range of people they will encounter in their adult lives. I hope that you will consider playing your part in achieving this social mission: a New Dulwich Experiment. The role of OAs in this will be crucial and the
College is grateful to the Alleyn Club and its President, James Thornton, for committing to this vision in the anniversary year by offering a matched gift for funds raised for bursaries (see p. 35). There are many challenges facing Dulwich College and every school in the UK (maintained or private or charitable) in the 2020s. You will hear
me talk about how we plan to face those challenges in the weeks and months to come, but it is in a spirit of celebration of all that has gone before, and in happy anticipation of all that lies ahead, that I invite you to read the Yearbook and to think about when you might join us over the course of what promises to be the most memorable of years.
