Welcome to our annual report for 2010,
the year in which Winchester College
became a Registered Charity. Whilst this
marks a new development in the School’s
charitable status, the educational benefit
we offer has been accessible to a wide
constituency for over 600 years.
In 1382, the Founder, William of Wykeham, put up
buildings in which seventy poor boys could live and
learn, funded entirely out of the endowment he left.
That principle has been in place ever since.
The reforms in funding procedure stimulated by
the Charity Commissioners are consistent with
Winchester’s pursuit not of elitism but of excellence.
And this excellence is shared and broadened not only
in creating access for boys of ability who want to join
our school, but also through our commitment to
the community.

In this annual report we tell the continuing story
of the School’s activities and developments as well
as offering a transparent account of its current
financial position.
WINCHESTER COLLEGE ANNUAL REPORT 2010
1
From the Warden & the Headmaster
Looking back over the past year, the School is in good heart. The first
results of the Cambridge Pre-U examination, of which Winchester is
the flagship, were excellent and justify our decision to embrace this more
challenging credential to underpin our senior academic programme.
Sir David Clementi (E, 1962-67) & Dr Ralph Townsend
Sir David Clementi Warden & Dr Ralph Townsend Headmaster
The Winchester Bibles Exhibition will be the central
event of 2011. All members of the Winchester
College Society and the Friends of the College will
be invited to come and see it.
Sir David Clementi Warden
Dr Ralph Townsend Headmaster
The year 2011 sees the four-hundredth
anniversary of the publication of
the King James Version of the Bible.
Exhibitions are planned all over the
country to celebrate what is commonly
recognised as one of the great literary
achievements in the history of
English literature.
of the Gospels, the Acts of the Apostles and the Book
of Revelation for the KJV. This work he carried out in
the Warden’s Lodgings, in the room which now bears
his name and holds the unique collection of foreignlanguage bibles bequeathed by him to the College.
Winchester College was intimately involved in the
production of the KJV and we shall be holding our
own exhibition in School over the summer months.
John Harmar (1555-1613), Headmaster (1588-1595)
and Warden (1596-1613) was one of the great
Greek scholars of his day, holding the post of
Regius Professor of Greek at Oxford from 1585-1590.
He was responsible for the first Greek book printed
at Oxford, and in 1604 he was assigned as one of
the Oxford scholars to work on the translation
WINCHESTER COLLEGE ANNUAL REPORT 2010
Until last year, Winchester did not possess a first
edition of the KJV, but this ironic gap was filled
when the Warden and Fellows collectively donated
that volume, now placed in a display case specially
made for it and housed in the Warden Harmar Room.
This volume will be the centrepiece of the exhibition
currently being arranged by the Fellows’ Librarian,
Dr Geoffrey Day, with the professional assistance
of Mr Paul Quarrie. The exhibition will be open
to the general public during August. In September
all Wykehamists will be introduced to the exhibition
as part of their Div programme, and schools
from around the county will also be given an
opportunity to visit.

Looking back over the past year, the School is in
good heart. The first results of the Cambridge Pre-U
examination, of which Winchester is the flagship,
were excellent and justify our decision to embrace
this more challenging credential to underpin our
senior academic programme. Our Oxbridge and
US Ivy League numbers continue to be high.
Several of our 2010 leavers won prestigious awards
to US universities. Our success in cricket, rackets
and fives places Winchester at the top of those
sports nationally. Sam Hart comments on the
progress of sport in the School in pages that follow.
Music permeates the School’s daily life, as is evidenced
in the regular recordings produced by Chapel Choir
and by Glee Club’s performances of such summits
of the repertoire as Bach’s B Minor Mass (performed
in the Cathedral in November 2010).
As Jonathan Davis notes in this report, Winchester
has in recent years eschewed any tendency to be
insular. As a matter of custom we welcome many
visitors to the School as part of our academic
programme. For several years now two boys from the
Johannes Kepler Grammar School in Prague, with the
status of Exhibitioner, have joined us for the whole of
Common Time, reminding Wykehamists they are not
always the best mathematicians in Europe! Since 2006
we have held a Winchester Symposium twice a year,
in February and November, when sixth formers from
various girls’ schools join our boys for a Sunday of
specialist advanced study. The day is planned around
four subject areas (there is a different combination for
WINCHESTER COLLEGE ANNUAL REPORT 2010
each symposium). An invited guest expert leads the
day, in which a key-note talk is followed by group
projects and discussion. A formal lunch is held in
School to provide an opportunity for wider
intellectual and social engagement. The symposium
held in November 2010 was the tenth in the series
and was made up of groups working in Art History,
Economics, German and Design Technology and
included girls from Downe House, Midhurst Rother
College (for more on our links with MRC see the
article on Jen Weeks later), St Swithun’s and City of
London Girls.
Other meetings have included girls from St Mary’s
Calne, St Mary’s Ascot, North London Collegiate and
Godolphin School, Salisbury. At the annual Studium
(a regular feature since 2002), held in October, when
normal lessons are suspended for a day, the School
welcomed among its guest speakers Sir Sherard
Cowper-Coles (on Afghanistan), John Pilkington
(on ‘The Axis of Evil’), Alex Figden and Josh Ellis
(on information security), Charles Barda, Adrian
Hornsby, William Shield and Malcom Moore (on
China), Ava Easton (on research on encephalitis),
Rear Admiral John Lippiett (on the Mary Rose),
Robert Hall (on the news machine), Lord Lawson
(on global warming policy), Anthony Smith (on
Charles Darwin), Oliver Kamm (on the economy),
Bishop Michael Nazir-Ali (on the place of moral
and spiritual tradition in decision-making in the
public sphere), Professor Peter Littlewood (on chaos
theory) and Anil Gupta (on writing comedy).
Dons’ Common Room continues to be a lively,
scholarly, harmonious assembly of excellent teachers and
schoolmasters, and the pastoral care of the boys is in the
hands of a team of highly professional Housemasters.

A Financial Report from the Bursar
Jeff Hynam
The Governing Body underwent a thorough
appraisal by the Chairman of the Association of
Governing Bodies of Independent Schools in
November and was judged to be carrying out its
affairs very effectively. Two new Fellows have joined
the Governing Body, Mr Charles Sinclair (B, 1961-66),
and Dr Peggy Frith of New College.
Our registrations for places in the
School up to 2014 have never been
healthier. We feel confident about
our future and our distinctive
place in British and international
education.
Various important events are planned around the
world during the coming year. At home, the most
significant among them will be an Ad Portas
ceremony, to be held in May, at which twenty-five
Old Wykehamist Fellows of the Royal Society and
Fellows of the British Academy will be accorded the
College’s highest honour in being presented formally
to the School in Chamber Court. The Winchester
International Symposium which met for the first
time in Winchester last March, will this year meet in
Nashville Tennessee, where two VI Book Wykehamists
will join eighteen of their peers from around the
world to study and write together on the theme of
Health Care. Immediately after the Symposium the
Headmaster, the Registrar and the two boys will take
part in a day conference with the Education Faculty
at the University of Pennsylvania. In April there will
be a major gathering of the Winchester community
in Hong Kong, with the Headmaster present;
entertainment will be provided by young OWs
WINCHESTER COLLEGE ANNUAL REPORT 2010
currently studying at university who will form a
close-harmony choir as a specially-constituted
Cantores Episcopi. The Headmaster will address
an international conference organised by Chinese
educationists in New York in July (as he did in
Beijing last summer).
While Paul Dennett, in his article which follows,
alerts us to the risk in means-testing for all
scholarships, the quality of Election candidates in
recent years has been as good as ever. Priscylla Lim,
in her appreciation of Science at Winchester, rightly
observes that we will not compromise quality by
exploiting the popularity of our ‘brand’. We do not
shrink from searching for solutions to challenges
ahead, not least the issues of sustainability described
by Oliver Thorold in later pages. Our registrations
for places in the School up to 2014 have never been
healthier. We feel confident about our future and our
distinctive place in British and international education.
Our ability to enhance access for those who cannot
afford the fees without financial assistance is growing
all the time, thanks to those generous donors who
support our commitment to building up the
endowment for bursaries and for the maintenance of
the Quiristers. We are most grateful for that support.
The College’s subsidiaries are wholly-owned,
carry out trading activities and donate their profits to
the College through gift aid to benefit its charitable
activities. Both traded profitably and the group’s
trading activities contributed a net £231,000, a 13%
improvement on the previous year. Winchester
College Enterprises had a particularly good year.
Jeff Hynam Bursar & Secretary to the Governing Body
On a group basis the College generated an operating
surplus of £947,000 in the year to 31 August 2010.
Income increased at a greater rate than expenditure
resulting in a healthier end-of-year position compared
with the previous year. In addition to fees the College
generates income through trading, investments and
fund-raising. The College continued its programme of
major refurbishment of boarding houses, which made
up a significant proportion of the total expenditure
on capital projects of £2.1m.
Income. The College’s accounts are consolidated to
incorporate the results of its two trading subsidiaries,
Beam Design Limited and Winchester College
Trading Company Limited.
Sir David Clementi
Warden
Gross income for the year was £24m, an increase of
1.6% on the previous year. Of this gross fee income
was £19.3m, also an increase of 1.6%. Although fees
were put up by 3.5%, pupil numbers were slightly
lower than the previous year.
Dr Ralph Townsend
Headmaster

WINCHESTER COLLEGE ANNUAL REPORT 2010
For the third year in a row investment income held
steady at just under £1.4 million. The College’s total
return approach added a further £743,000 of funds for
use by the College. Less positively, interest receivable
fell significantly for the second year running as a
result of continuing low levels of interest.
Grant and donation income increased by £158,000
(10.4%) to £1,675,000. With the introduction of the
Wykeham Campaign in spring 2008 to support and
increase three key elements of the College’s charitable
activities, provision of bursaries, maintenance of the
Quirister choral foundation and the preservation of
the College’s ancient buildings, the College invested
significant time and resources in its fundraising effort
and this continuing growth in donations received is
encouraging.
Expenditure. Total expenditure, including scholarships
and bursaries, increased by 0.2% to £23.1m. That costs
increased at a slower rate than income reflected the
College’s efforts to control its costs and promote
efficiency, rather than any reduction in the level of its
activities or cutting back on its efforts to improve its
teaching and boarding facilities through its major
building maintenance and refurbishment programme.

Teaching and related costs. £8.5m for the year, £7.0m
of which was the cost of employing teaching staff.
The number of bursaries at the ‘higher end’ has also
increased steadily. In 2010/11 one pupil is fully funded,
including ‘extras’; two other pupils receive bursaries
in excess of 90%, and four more in excess of 80%.
A total of 26 out of the 48 receive bursaries in excess
of 50% and forty out of the 48 in excess of 30%.
Accommodation and Welfare Costs. £3.7m for the
year, relating mostly to the cost of running the
boarding houses and College
Premises Costs. The College continued to spend
heavily on its programme to improve boarding
accommodation. Total expenditure before depreciation
was £4.5m. In addition £1.9m was spent on School
buildings, including £1.4m on the refurbishment of
Du Boulay’s. A similar refurbishment is currently
being undertaken in Hawkin’s and Kingsgate House
is scheduled for 2011/12.
Support and Other Costs. £2.9m for the year,
relating to a range of support functions including
academic administration and the registry, the bursary,
development office, investment management, audit
and trading, legal and professional fees and the costs
of governance.
Grants and Awards. These include scholarships,
bursaries, Quiristers and other awards. In the year
to 31 August 2010 scholarships, bursaries and other
awards were given to 191 pupils and totalled £1.5m
(2009: 184 pupils; £1.5m). This investment represents
nearly 8% of gross fee income, with most of the
funding derived from the College’s trusts and
endowments. 51 boys (2009: 41) received meanstested bursaries worth £620,000 (2009: £422,000),
the equivalent of over 21 full fees.
In the current year (2010/11) 48 pupils are receiving
means-tested bursaries totalling £701,000. The total
‘spend’ on bursaries has increased significantly over the
last eight years, as has the average value per applicant.
WINCHESTER COLLEGE ANNUAL REPORT 2010

The policy of the Warden and Fellows in regard to
awarding grants is consistent with the furtherance
of the Charity’s Objects. Scholarships and prizes
and most other similar awards are awarded on the
basis of merit and educational ability; bursaries are
determined on the basis of need. From 2011 all funds
awarded from the endowment (whether to parents of
Scholars or Commoners) will be by way of a bursary.
Over time it is the College’s aim to be in a position
to raise enough endowment to fund the equivalent
of 10% of the College on full bursaries and a further
20% on an average of half a bursary (i.e. about 200
boys on an average bursary of 66%). It is hoped to
achieve this objective by the year 2017.
The Quiristers continue to receive 50% remission
of fees at Pilgrims’ School and the cost of this to the
College was £158,000 (2009: £150,000). This automatic
remission will reduce to 40% from September 2011;
a fund-raising campaign to provide bursary support
for Quiristers has commenced.

Investing in the future
Intellectual curiosity and an appreciation of the beauty of
physical environment are the two great debts that I owe to
Winchester and the reason I continue to take an active
interest in the School.
Jonathan Davis (Coll, 1967-71), our guest editor this year, arrived at
Winchester in 1967. He is encouraged to find that the College is
embracing new ideas and looking forward, not back.
The Winchester experience shapes all
of us in different ways, not all of them
evident at the time. I never expected
that my working life, after a relatively
conventional start as a professional
journalist, would turn into a portfolio
career, with alternating periods of
full-time and self employment across
a wide range of different activities:
writing, editing, publishing, consulting,
researching, and most recently,
managing, fundraising and advising in
the investment business (with the game
of bridge as a compelling sideline).
‘Independent and enquiring mind; thinks straight
and communicates well: cheerfulness allied to
antinomian tendencies’ was roughly how my
housemaster, Martin Scott, categorised this student
at the time, and with the exception perhaps of the
antinomian tendencies (a phrase which I remember
having to translate rather loosely for the benefit of
my mother), that would sum up quite well for me
what a Wykehamical education instils in those
fortunate enough to be able to experience it.
What a portfolio career lacks in terms of stability and
accrued pension benefits is more than compensated
for, I have found, by a richer variety of experience
and the freedom to think and structure one’s life
independently. It has led me, variously, to be a
founding shareholder in The Week; the investment
director of a Brazilian farmland fund; a regular
newspaper columnist In The Independent and
WINCHESTER COLLEGE ANNUAL REPORT 2010
Jonathan Davis
Financial Times for 15 years; the author of three
books (with two more in the pipeline); an adviser to
some colourful businessmen; a non-executive director
of several companies; creator of the Independent
Investor website; and, not least, for six years unpaid
chairman of the Savile Club, a wonderful institution
in London’s West End (pictured, right), whose motto
‘Leave your halo in the hall’ perfectly sums up its
members’ ingrained aversion to pomposity and selfregard in all their forms. (I am happy to say that we
have been able to recruit several young Wykehamists
in the past 12 months, helped by our low starting
subscription rates for recent graduates).
Intellectual curiosity and an appreciation of the beauty
of physical environment are the two great debts that
I owe to Winchester and the reason I continue to take
an active interest in the School. The five short features
that follow illustrate, I hope, that the College continues
to combine its traditional high academic standards
with an ability to adapt to new external challenges.
There have been occasions when, in my experience,
the School has seemed somewhat insular and overly
willing to rest on its laurels. In researching these
stories, however, I detect encouraging evidence
that the pace of innovation is accelerating and a
willingness to reach out to a wider community and
embrace its concerns is being energetically embraced
within the School’s beautiful, but (as Oliver Thorold
helpfully reminds us) far from modern or efficient
physical infrastructure.

Bursaries – the way forward
Academic strength has always been at the heart of the School’s
distinctive appeal, and continuing to ensure that Winchester
draws the most able pupils will be the great challenge as the
new system is phased in.
Paul Dennett (Coll, 1988-93) was the beneficiary of financial support
as a Wykehamist. Now he makes a career out of helping others enjoy
the same advantage.

Paul Dennett, a 36-year-old fundraising
consultant, is a poster child for the
bursary scheme which is set to become
the dominant form of financial
assistance offered by Winchester to
attract boys of high academic potential
to the School. When he arrived as a
Collegeman in 1988, he was one of only
two boys from a state school to be on
that year’s scholarship roll, his place
funded by a combination of automatically
remitted fees (the standard scholarship
arrangement, now being phased out)
and by bursaries donated anonymously
by Old Wykehamists and others.
To this day he does not know who the benefactors
were who enabled his parents, a primary school
teacher and retired CEGB engineer from Lymington
in Hampshire, to send him to Winchester. Nor does
he know quite why he was chosen, since his own
comprehensive was unable to teach him (or either
of his two brothers) the trigonometry that was
needed to answer most of the questions in the
maths scholarship exam, and he does not remember
shining in any particular subject. It may have helped,
he thinks now, looking back, that when he was
called for interview he had not yet decided whether
the unexpected opportunity to pursue a Winchester
education was right for him. He therefore perhaps
felt he had little to lose and answered more
boldly than he felt.
WINCHESTER COLLEGE ANNUAL REPORT 2010
As only one of two children from a comprehensive
amongst a crowd of former prep school boys, albeit
one who had shown a voracious appetite for reading
every book he could find in his parents’ house, his
first reward on arriving at the School was to be given
the nickname ‘Kevin’ by his fellow Collegemen,
a teenage gesture that he was more than happy to
take in his stride. It helped, he recalls, that he was
14 on the day he arrived and therefore older,
physically larger and more socially experienced
than his contemporaries, many of whom, he recalls,
‘had yet to meet, let alone go out with, a girl’.
Although he spent a good part of his five years at
the School in a lower set than his fellow scholars,
reflecting how far behind in his learning he was on
his arrival, he more than made up for it with his
energetic involvement in extra-curricular activities.
These included a lot of sport, notably squash,
running and Winchester Football (which he loved),
time in the CCF and enthusiastic participation in
theatre set design and stage management. He looks
back on his time at the School as hugely rewarding,
both for what he learnt, and for the close friendships
he was able to forge in a close-knit community.
His time at Winchester over, Mr Dennett went on
to read psychology at University College, London,
and since then to a career, appropriately enough,
as a professional fundraiser and development officer,
with a particular emphasis on secondary and higher
education. His interest, he says, was sparked in part
by reflecting on his own good fortune in being
chosen for Winchester and in part by his early
involvement in a school telephone campaign
(the first of several).
12
After eight years in a variety of roles, including Deputy
Director of Development, at UCL, he moved to a job
as head of Charitable Giving at the British Library,
and since 2007 has worked as a partner in a
specialist consultancy firm which advises schools and
universities, amongst others, on their development
campaigns. Winchester has been one of the beneficiaries
of his professional advice, and he himself has been a
regular donor, while acknowledging that he is unlikely
to be able to repay the £150,000 odd of fees that his
five years at the School would cost, at current prices.
He looks back on his time at the School
as hugely rewarding, both for what he
learnt, and for the close friendships
he was able to forge.
While very pleased with the School’s overdue
decision to put its development campaign into
full-time professional hands, he confesses to mixed
feelings about the plan to phase out automatic
remission of fees for scholars in favour of a 100%
commitment to means-tested bursaries. ‘On the one
hand I am delighted that the School will be offering
more boys like me the opportunity to share in a first
class education. Despite initial concerns I might have
had about the move to 100% means testing putting
off applicants, I hear that demand for places in
College remains as buoyant as ever’. Academic
strength has always been at the heart of the School’s
distinctive appeal, and continuing to ensure that
Winchester draws the most able pupils will be the
great challenge as the new system is phased in.

Investing in bursaries
Since the Governing Body decided in
September 2005 to reduce the value of
scholarships, greater and greater funds
have become available for bursaries.
This has allowed the School not just to
offer bursaries to more pupils, but also
to deepen those bursaries by increasing
the average value per award, raising the
threshold where parents qualify for
bursaries and offering more and more
‘high end’ awards. At the same time there
is no slackening in demand for election to
College with both the number and quality
of applicants remaining robust.
In the 2005/2006 academic year bursaries
totalling £303,000 were awarded to just
17 pupils. In the 2009/2010 year, £620,000
was awarded to 51 pupils. In the current
year more than £700,000 has already been
awarded, with one pupil fully funded,
including ‘extras’, two receiving bursaries
in excess of 90% and four more in excess
of 80%. A total of 26 receive more than
50% help with school fees.

A view from the East
One of the things that impressed me most about Winchester was
that it continues to put its commitment to a first class education
above the easy commercial gains which could be had by turning
the Winchester ‘brand’ into a profit-driven entity.
Ryan Lim (F, 2003-07) remembers Science School and its dons
with particular gratitude. Here his mother records the value of
an excellent British education from the Asian perspective.

Boys from families living overseas, the
majority of them Asian, now account for
one in eight of the intake at Winchester,
and their parents provide a useful
alternative perspective on the School
as it is seen from the other side of the
globe. Priscylla Lim, a businesswoman
and philanthropist whose son Ryan Lim
spent four years in Chawker’s, says that
one of the things that impressed her
most about Winchester was that it
continues to put its commitment to a
first class education above the easy
commercial gains which could be had
by turning the Winchester ‘brand’
into a profit-driven entity.
A certain otherworldliness is part of the School’s
charm, she says, and it was one of the reasons why,
having decided that a British public school education
was best for her son, she chose Winchester in
preference to the alternatives, some with grander
pretensions. She doubts that the satellite
establishments which some other public schools
are starting to set up in Asia, in order to tap into
the strong regional demand for high quality English
education, can ever offer an experience to match
that of physically attending school in England.
Nor does she favour the habit of parents sending
boys from overseas to spend their last year only at
school in England. Far better than this ‘polishing off ’,
in her view, is that boys should have the benefit of a
WINCHESTER COLLEGE ANNUAL REPORT 2010
full five years of the English experience, not just
to get used to living in a colder climate, but also to
ensure that they gain as much as possible from the
teaching and pastoral care provided by the dons,
who in her eyes are ‘the real unsung heroes’ of the
Wykehamist experience. As for Ryan, she says,
‘he loved it from day one — the dorm, living with a
whole group of boys, going into town, the seasons,
the way the dons taught, the beautiful surroundings.
At age 13, Singapore boys are well-equipped to take
notes, keep books tidy, hand in homework, so the
work part was not a big problem. Of course, it is for
the parents and the school to be convinced themselves
that the boy is ready for boarding school life’.
To Asian eyes the quirks of life at Winchester can
also be a source of amusement, it seems. Mrs Lim
describes her son’s dismay at finding, at the start
of a new school year, that his bed in Chawker’s had
been placed under a beam, which might be considered
inauspicious by many Chinese. When the issue was
raised with Ryan’s housemaster Nick MacKinnon,
he told him, in time-honoured fashion, to ‘get on
with it’. Undeterred, Ryan and his room-mate
removed the bolts which anchored their beds to the
floor, moved them around so that neither was any
longer under the offending beam and placed a mat
over the evidence of their manoeuvre. It remained
undetected for the rest of the year.
Clearly a resourceful boy, who raced through his
exams, Ryan left the School after just four years to
return for his national service in Singapore, before
going on to read Law at Oxford. Mrs Lim subsequently
decided to make a donation of his fifth year’s fees in
recognition of all that the dons had done for him.
16
‘Winchester lives up to its vision and the dons
lead by example’ she says, naming John Cullerne,
a physics don and housemaster of Trants, as a
particular inspiration. The two things Ryan gained
most from Winchester were ‘enjoyment in
intellectual challenge, and the friends he has made.
Worst thing — he’s learned about English beer,
which smells awful to me!’ The other thing that
defeated her was Winchester College Football:
‘a tug-of-war plus football-of-sorts whilst hanging
on for dear life to a rope, played on a muddy field
— I’ve never quite understood the rules nor charms
of this Winchester game’.
Boys should have the benefit of a
full five years of the English experience
to ensure that they gain as much as
possible from the teaching and pastoral
care provided by the dons, ‘the real
unsung heroes’ of the Wykehamist
experience.
Asked for his suggestions as to how the donation
might be used, Ryan himself, says his mother,
professed indifference to the fate of the School
buildings, but felt the Science School was the place
where he had been most inspired and therefore
wanted to benefit the most. The fruit of her donation
can be seen today in three proud additions to Science
School; a bust of Darwin, a large mural representation
of the periodic tables and, most intriguing of all to an
enquiring young mind, a working wind tunnel.

Shaping the future
A Winchester education is unique.
Our pupils enjoy good teaching and
our dons enjoy the liveliness of bright
pupils. Our aim is to foster a network
of good relationships and to ensure
a high level of individual support.
Everything we do at Winchester is an
aspect of our care of the boys. We think
of ourselves as a network of friends:
subject dons, Div dons and chaplains
up to books, and Housemasters with
their teams of tutors, matrons and
other staff up to House, underpin this
network of support.
More than £5 of every £10 of our
expenditure is spent on staff, with £3
of that going directly to teaching. Add to
that the non-staff costs of teaching, and
nearly £4 in every £10 is spent on the
classroom, even before taking into
account the costs of maintaining and
improving our teaching facilities — the
div rooms, laboratories, practice rooms
and workshops which all contribute
so much to a Winchester education.
17
A chance to shine
The programme gives our students a wider learning and cultural
experience than they would otherwise expect to have. In a rural area
like ours, they typically don’t come into contact with such a diverse
group of people and this is an opportunity to broaden their horizons.
Two new initiatives give pupils from a state school in Midhurst
the opportunity to be taught by Winchester dons and set their
sights on Oxbridge.

Working with MRC is
an important part of the
Community Service
programme at Winchester,
involving 50 staff and
300 boys in weekly
outreach activity.
Twenty-four students at Midhurst
Rother College, an academy in the
West Sussex town of Midhurst, have
been able to experience the teaching
of Winchester College dons as part of
a recent initiative to forge greater links
between the independent and state
school systems. The scheme has been
running since January 2009, when the
new academy formally opened, and may
yet develop into a more extensive
collaboration if the enthusiastic
response of the inaugural group of
students is anything to go by.
Jen Weeks, Assistant Principal at Midhurst Rother
College, believes that the programme is already well
on the way to achieving its objective, which is to raise
the educational aspirations of students and their
parents at the newly formed academy. The opening
of the academy two years ago was part of a wider
reorganisation of secondary education in the Rother
Valley, a 400 square mile rural catchment area which
incorporates the towns of Midhurst and Petworth.
The decision to form a link with Midhurst Rother
College rather than with another maintained school
has a certain historical resonance in that towards
the end of the nineteenth century there were several
Wykehamist headmasters of Midhurst Grammar
School and for a time the school included Winchester
Division in its curriculum. Winchester’s decision to
contribute the time and expertise of its dons is a
WINCHESTER COLLEGE ANNUAL REPORT 2010
continuation of that tradition, as well as a statement
of intent about the School’s enthusiasm to share
resources and ideas with the state sector.
The Local Governing Body of the academy is chaired
by David Anderson (Coll, 1969-71), who worked
in investment banking after an earlier career in
the Army, and includes several others with strong
Wykehamist connections, among them the current
Headmaster and Michael St John Parker, a one-time
don and now Fellow of Winchester College,
who gave up the exhilarating task of teaching late
19th century economic history to Wykehamists
(myself included) to become the Headmaster of
Abingdon School.
‘Throughout my career as a soldier and as a banker,’
Mr Anderson, declares on the Midhurst Rother
College website, ‘I have always valued the knowledge,
sense of intellectual enquiry and analytical ability
that I was encouraged to develop at school’. Two
separate programmes involving Winchester College,
one funded by the academy and the other by a
charity established by City investment bankers,
have been established to help academically-minded
students realise their own personal ambitions.
The first programme, known as the Aspire programme,
enables 24 of the most academically-gifted GCSE
students to spend two days at Winchester, where
they are taught maths and science by dons, lunch
in College Hall and have the opportunity to mix
socially with Winchester College boys. Students
on this programme also visit St John’s College,
Oxford and learn more about the benefits of an
Oxbridge education, a destination which in normal
circumstances they might never think of entertaining.
20
The second programme, known as Shine, for Year 7
students, enables two dozen 11-year-olds to spend
10 Saturday mornings over the year in lessons at
Winchester, with an option of being mentored by
4th year Winchester boys (a practice that might have
been quite dangerous in my time). ‘The programme’
says Miss Weeks ‘gives our students a wider learning
and cultural experience than they would otherwise
expect to have. In a rural area like ours, they typically
don’t come into contact with such a diverse group
of people and this is an opportunity to broaden
their horizons’.
Contributing the time and expertise
of dons from the School is a statement
of intent about Winchester’s willingness
to share resources and ideas with the
state sector.
Feedback to date from both students and parents
for both schemes has been very positive, so much
so that more than half of the group which visited
Oxford now say that they are considering applying
to Oxbridge and most also, reports Miss Weeks,
with undisguised enthusiasm, now ‘cannot wait to
get to lessons on Saturday mornings’. The hope is
that students on the Shine programme, which runs
for three years, will graduate in due course to the
Aspire programme and set their sights, if appropriate,
on a place at Oxbridge.

Realising potential
Midhurst Rother College is an Academy
opened in January 2009. It is sponsored
by the United Learning Trust (ULT)
in conjunction with Winchester College
and the University of Chichester.
Winchester College contributes no fewer
than six governors to the board of the
academy adding academic rigour and
aspiration to the new academy.
Winchester is proud to partner MRC
and share facilities, teaching and staff
training. Three core areas of activity:
science, sport and music deliver benefit
to pupils and staff at both establishments.
Science dons have taught at MRC and
academy pupils have visited Winchester
for lessons.
Football matches have been played
between the schools and other sports
are planned.
Music workshops have brought pupils
together to learn technical proficiency.

students to see St John’s College Oxford

Meeting the carbon challenge
Donors have the power to help achieve broader objectives for which
the College itself, faced as it is with a myriad of financial pressures,
cannot always immediately fund from its own internally-generated
financial resources. I would be very happy if this strikes a chord
with others and prompts them to get involved.
Oliver Thorold (D, 1958-63) is hoping that other Old Wykehamist
donors will come forward to share his enthusiasm for ‘greening’
the Winchester College estate.
WINCHESTER COLLEGE ANNUAL REPORT 2010

WINCHESTER COLLEGE ANNUAL REPORT 2010

Following a meeting with the Bursar, Mr Thorold
agreed to sponsor an initial consultant’s report on
the environmental impact of the College’s estate,
which besides its most visible monuments, such as
Chapel and School, encompasses 190 buildings,
93 of which are listed, as well as farmland in three
counties. (Some of the latter holdings were part of
William of Wykeham’s original endowment in the
fourteenth century). Few of these buildings, it goes
without saying, were built or designed with energy
conservation, let alone the monitoring of their
carbon footprint, in mind.
‘Since leaving Winchester College 46 years ago I
regret to say that I haven’t responded to any of the
numerous appeals launched to Old Wykehamists.
Appeals with a foreign focus have always seemed
more pressing. But there would be one College
appeal, falling naturally under your jurisdiction as
Bursar, to which I would enthusiastically contribute.
It would be an appeal to help the College massively
to reduce, or preferably totally eliminate, its
carbon footprint’.
The survey confirmed what was already obvious,
that there is much that could be done to improve
the efficiency with which the School uses energy,
albeit at a significant cost in up-front investment,
and with considerable technical challenges to be
overcome. Many of the buildings, for example,
lack cavity walls that can be readily insulated. A first
priority therefore has been to seek a comprehensive
audit of exactly how and at what cost resources
are being used.
Noting the increasing inter-governmental drive
to reduce CO2 emissions, he went on to say
that Winchester could not — and should not —
expect to be able to claim that its privileged status
somehow exempted it from sharing in this
obligation. ‘I am hoping that a school that sets
exceptionally high academic standards’ he wrote
‘might address the challenge without needing
to be pushed, leading where others will follow,
indeed demonstrating with a truly exemplary
programme how best to proceed’.
Knowing that payback times on energy conservation
scheme can often be surprisingly short, Mr Thorold
has plenty of ideas for rectifying the shortcomings.
By negotiating a single electricity tariff for all its
buildings, the Winchester estate would, he believes,
be able to save thousands of pounds a year on its
heating bills. The School could also do a lot with
solar power. Under recent Government proposals,
a solar-powered plant on Winchester’s
Cambridgeshire farmland could, in theory, not only
produce a substantial reduction in the School’s
carbon footprint (as an offset scheme). It could also
WINCHESTER COLLEGE ANNUAL REPORT 2010
quickly become a significant source of annual
profit for the School — sufficient, on paper at least,
to fund several bursaries for deserving boys. It would
be, in this committed advocate’s view, a classic case
of doing well by doing right.
24
The practicality of an investment of this sort is
one of several now being considered formally by
the Governing Body. It has already approved in
principle the installation of solar panels in a number
of locations, subject to planning and structural
considerations. A plan to generate a small amount
of hydroelectric power by harnessing the flow of
water through Old Mill is also being being
considered, and has seized the imagination of a
number of Old Wykehamist donors. All these
changes require both funding and planning
permission, so progress will take time.
A solar-powered plant could not only
produce a sufficient reduction in carbon
footprint, but could quickly become a
significant source of annual profit for
the School.
Mr Thorold thinks there may be other Wykehamists
who share his view that helping to ‘green’ the College
estate would be a most rewarding cause to support.
‘Donors have the power to help achieve broader
objectives for which the College itself, faced as it is
with a myriad of financial pressures, cannot always
immediately fund from its own internally-generated
financial resources. I would be very happy if this
strikes a chord with others and prompts them
to get involved’.

When Oliver Thorold (D, 1958-63) sent
a letter to the Bursar explaining why he
had never bothered to reply to any appeal
from the College, he was uncertain what
consequences, if any, might follow. As a
committed environmentalist, one who
as a young barrister had cut his teeth as
junior counsel for Friends of the Earth
in the Windscale public enquiry in 1977,
he wrote to the Bursar as follows:

Green challenges
Oliver Thorold is certainly right
that the College’s ‘privileged status’
has not protected it from the sharp
increase in energy bills over recent years.
The economic downturn may have
given some respite over the last year or
so but prices are on the rise once more.
All the experts agree that the cost of
energy can only continue to increase at
a far greater rate than general inflation,
even faster than school fees, out of which
we have to find the funds to meet these
higher heating and lighting bills.
Managing the College’s energy supplies
is no simple matter; there are more than
sixty separate electricity supplies and
nearly forty gas. Energy purchasing is
carefully managed, using professional
advisors to tender supplies to achieve the
keenest prices. However, the economic
arguments for reducing the amount of
energy we have to buy are all too
compelling, even without the other
benefits of the ‘green agenda’.
25
A sporting chance
My priority is to take the healthy legacy my excellent predecessor
left me and raise it to a higher level. The primary objective remains
to make sure that any Wykehamist who wants to follow a sport
of his choice can do so to the highest possible standard.
Sam Hart, newly appointed Head of Sport, wants to give
every Wykehamist the chance to make the most of his ability,
however diverse his choice of sport.

When I arrived at Winchester in 1967,
the gym was a place of fearsome repute,
manned by military disciplinarians from
another era. As far as I can recall, which
admittedly is dimly, it was equipped
with little other than mats, a medicine
ball, climbing ropes, some weights and
those wooden climbing frames around
the walls whose educational purpose
still remains something of a mystery
after all these years. Boxing was the
only martial art on offer, and PE lessons
were conducted with distinct paradeground efficiency.
Cricket, soccer and games requiring rackets were,
along with Winchester Football, reasonably well
catered for, but other sports less so. By the time
I left the School, however the old gym had been
decommissioned and replaced with a new Sports
Centre, designed to accommodate a more broadminded and, whisper it softly, more humane
approach towards sporting and athletic development.
(Best not to enquire, I suppose, whether today’s
intake bunk off to the pub as regularly as the 3rd
XI teams in which I played were wont to do).
Talking to Sam Hart, the recently appointed Head
of Sport, it is quickly apparent how far this new
approach has developed subsequently. Asked what
he would most wish for, given unlimited funds,
his answer is ‘a second Sports Hall, or even better
a new P.E Centre’. The reason is that the range of
WINCHESTER COLLEGE ANNUAL REPORT 2010
sporting choices open to men at the School has
grown so rapidly that the impressive new dedicated
Sports Centre of my time is now nearly too small
to accommodate all the demands that are being
made on it.
A new building isn’t likely to materialise in the short
run, as Mr Hart acknowledges, so his focus is on
improving what is already in place. ‘My priority is
to take the healthy legacy my excellent predecessor
left me and raise it to a higher level. The primary
objective remains to make sure that any Wykehamist
who wants to follow a sport of his choice can do so to
the highest possible standard’. Participation in sport,
although it remains voluntary, is greater and more
varied than it once was. Better, the philosophy goes,
to choose one sport, however unusual, and seek to
excel to it, than to struggle to achieve little at several
for which the aptitude and pleasure may be lacking.
Mr Hart points out, for example, that the School now
plays 21 different matches against Eton on a single
afternoon, almost three times more than than the
number which would have been played 15 years ago.
Men in the School have the choice of approximately
25 different sports, and while the major sports are
well catered for, with ten soccer pitches and seven
cricket squares, it is the other sports such as
Badminton (particularly popular with the growing
number of boys from the Far East), Basketball and
Fencing which have to compete hardest for resources.
It is for that reason that the Head of Sport is investing
most of his efforts in the short term towards expanding
the choices available by recruiting specialist expertise,
for example in Archery and Water Polo.
28
He is also working hard to improve the look and feel
of the sports facilities. Specific items that were on
his action/wish list and have recently been achieved,
include a new room for the martial arts (for which
there is considerable demand), additional state-ofthe-art weight training and fitness equipment,
and provision for more pre-season training for the
dons who continue, in addition to their teaching
and pastoral duties, to make a huge personal
commitment to sports provision. Each sport at
Winchester has its own master-in-charge, who in the
case of Rackets, Squash, Football, Cricket and martial
arts works alongside dedicated professional coaches.
Together they have been instrumental in boys from
Winchester achieving excellent inter-school
competitive results, notably in rackets, fives and judo.
The School now plays 21 different
matches against Eton in a single
afternoon, almost three times more
than the number which would have
been played 15 years ago.
Like Marmite and certain other glorious British
inventions, the appeal of Winchester Football
remains incomprehensible to all but those who have
experienced it, to judge by the bemused expressions
of my wife’s Dutch family when they came down to
watch a Xs match a couple of years ago. Mrs Lim’s
bafflement is clearly not unique. But those who have
played the game, as I did happily for five years, will
always have a soft spot for its beguiling combination
of physicality and rule complexity, and, it remains,
reports Mr Hart, more popular than ever.

Team spirit
Sport has always been an important
aspect of Wykehamical life and with
25 different sports currently on offer
this is certainly true today.
Boys can have coaching in a diverse range
of sports from aikido and Archery to
fishing and golf. Nowhere else can they
play ‘Winkies’ as Winchester College
Football is fondly known.
This year has seen investment in both
facilities and staff. A new weight room
with running machines and a new DoJo
for martial arts are the first signs of a
much larger programme.
Not only does the College offer 10
soccer pitches and seven cricket squares,
it provides some of the best coaching
staff available to nurture talent and
develop potential.
Quality and choice: a boy who wants to
specialise in a sport will be provided with
the appropriate coaching to develop his
skill. He will not be forced into a limited
selection of major sports.

be less than the nominal 4%, with the equivalent of 3.2%
of the valuation at the start of the year being extracted in
2009/10. Conversely, poor equity markets in recent years
have caused the extraction from the investment portfolio
to exceed 4%, with the equivalent of 4.3% being extracted
in 2009/10. The Investment Committee will keep the
extraction rate under review in the light of projected
future returns and inflation, to ensure that the College’s
assets and income are growing in real terms over time,
and that the needs and interests of current and future
beneficiaries of the College are fairly balanced.
Mark Loveday Chairman of the Investment Committee
The Committee (see p.48) has particular responsibility
for reviewing investment policy, asset allocation and
risk/reward characteristics, as well as monitoring the
performance of the College’s investments. The investment
objectives are at least to maintain, and indeed grow, the
value of the College’s investments in real terms and to
produce a sustainable income stream to support
expenditure on bursaries, the Quiristers and the
maintenance of the ancient buildings, all within
acceptable levels of risk. To meet these objectives the
investments as a whole are managed on a total return
basis with diversification across a range of asset classes.
At 31 August 2010 the College’s investments had a total
value of £53,093,000, of which £35,694,000 was in
agricultural land (67.2%), £3,489,000 in residential houses
(6.6%) and £13,910,000 in stocks and shares (26.2%).
At present the College has a policy of extracting an
annual income of 4% (plus costs) on the average value
of the investments over the last five years. In the case of
agricultural land, continuously increasing investment
values have caused the effective amounts withdrawn to
WINCHESTER COLLEGE ANNUAL REPORT 2010
Farming has had a good run and our agricultural land
portfolio continued to perform well. The College owns
9,100 acres concentrated mainly in Hampshire (5,549
acres) and Cambridgeshire (2,656 acres), with one farm
in Dorset (895 acres). All our land is let out to tenants and
last year produced an annual net income of £750,000.
Rents yielded 2.7% on the opening valuation and
increases in rent of the order of 10% were negotiated on
seven farms, with the remainder to be reviewed in 2011.
The value of the land increased by £958,000, so that the
total return for the year was 4.9% after costs. The Estates
Bursar continues to look for opportunities to add value
to our land holdings, particularly in energy generation
such as solar panels and farms.
The residential portfolio, which has five houses in
Winchester for letting out, has seen a 24% increase in
valuation this year to £3,489,000 following an external
valuation. Part of this increase can be attributed to
firmer house prices in the local market, but the major
part is due to a re-rating of the portfolio by the valuer.
With net rents rising to £116,000, the total return was
therefore 28.4%. Planning permission has been obtained
to develop a further six residential houses, and these
will be built when the necessary finance is available.
30
The College’s investment portfolio, which is managed
by UBS, was valued at £13,910,000 after including an
additional £1,077,000 as a result of donations received.
During the year holdings of cash and bonds were
reduced and our weighting in hedge funds, commodities
and equities was increased. The portfolio produced a
net income of £152,000 with a total return of +3.7%
compared to +9.5% for the benchmark, which was a
disappointing performance. The principal reason for this
underperformance can be attributed to the UBS Global
Property Fund through which the portfolio gained
exposure to international commercial property in 2007.
This was bad timing and the value suffered a 30% fall last
year. Excluding the property fund, the portfolio would
have returned 7.7% in the year compared with 7.4% for
the benchmark. In October 2010 the Committee
conducted a thorough three-year review of UBS’s
management of the portfolio and decided to reappoint
them on renewed terms for a further two years with the
intention of having a five-year review in Autumn 2012.
Overall the total return on the College’s long-term
investments for the year to 31 August 2010 was 6.7%.
Total income, net of management costs, was £1,018,000,
requiring a capital extraction of £743,000 to achieve
the target 4%. The College has an excellent agricultural
portfolio in terms of quality and potential, a small
but interesting residential portfolio, which we intend
to increase, and a well spread investment portfolio.
This should provide the College with a growing income
over time to meet its commitments in the future,
whilst providing some growth in real asset value.

A good return
To balance current and future needs,
the College aims to:
· maintain (at least) the value of its
investments in real terms;
· produce a consistent and sustainable
·
amount to support current expenditure;
and
deliver these first two objectives with
acceptable levels of risk.
The College manages its investments as
a whole on a total return basis and
maintains diversification across a range
of asset classes to produce an appropriate
balance between risk and reward.
To maximise its freedom and flexibility
to invest where it expects returns to be
most rewarding, regardless of whether
those returns are delivered as income or
capital gains, the College has obtained
an Order from the Charity Commission
allowing it to invest to maximise total
return and make available an appropriate
proportion of the total return for
expenditure each year.

A Report from the Chairman of the Development Committee
05
The planning stage of the Wykeham Campaign is
complete, and we are now in the ‘quiet phase’. This is
the period of time when we are actively seeking
major donations from individuals before widening
out the appeal. The provision of high-quality
education, particularly where boarding is concerned,
is unavoidably expensive, and we aim to be in a
position where we can offer the best education
available to boys of strong academic potential,
whatever their parental means. We are determined
to maintain the Founder’s intention; that is, to offer
the best possible intellectual cultural formation to
boys who can best profit from it.
Robert Woods
Chairman of the Development Committee
Richard Morse (K, 1972-76)
Chairman of the Campaign Committee
I’m delighted to have this opportunity to write
about the Wykeham Campaign and fundraising at
Winchester College, and to be able to express my
sincere and grateful thanks to all those who have
donated generously to the School over the past year.
As a Fellow and OW (G, 1960-64), I care passionately
about the School, and as Chairman of the
Development Committee, I am determined that
we should increase the endowment in order to
guarantee the future provision of bursaries in line
with the Founder, William of Wykeham’s vision
for the School.
community to the Hunter Tent Appeal, which
exceeded the £90,000 target with the £40,000 surplus
going to the Al Gordon Sports Fund. Donors were
encouraged to dig deep by a challenge grant, donated
by past Captain of Lords, Mark Loveday. We will
build on past successes by broadening our appeal
programme to include mailings (mostly electronic)
and ensure that they are sent to those who have a
particular interest. On-line donations can now be
made by OWs, and soon it will be possible for
parents to donate electronically.
As you will see from the encouraging figures, we have
broadened our contact with the Wykehamical
community and expanded our donor base through
an active events programme and the Annual Fund
appeals. Annual Fund activities in the year included
a very successful telephone campaign and an appeal
to Leavers’ parents, both of which will be an annual
feature of our fundraising programme. We were also
delighted by the support given by the OW cricket
WINCHESTER COLLEGE ANNUAL REPORT 2010
Our expanded events programme included a wellsupported reunion for the Class of 1945 (and earlier!)
with 33 OWs attending, pizza evenings for
undergraduates, and a ‘Celebration of OW Sport’
reception, with 135 attending. Other events worthy
of mention were a lunch to thank donors to Hunter
Tent and to celebrate its refurbishment, the Toyes
150th Anniversary, which was enjoyed by over 200
old Toyeites in The Great Hall at Lincoln’s Inn, and
the annual Domum Supper for Leavers’ parents.
34
In line with this vision, the School has reviewed
its strategy for recruiting suitable candidates for
bursaries. The Housemasters have all agreed to make
such recruitment a personal priority, which is very
welcome and should help to ensure the widest
possible external awareness of the opportunity for
boys to benefit from bursaries.
We maintain beautiful ancient buildings, which
enhance the atmosphere of study and which form part
of the nation’s history. The 93 listed buildings, nine of
which are Grade 1, attract visitors from all around the
world, and guided tours ensure that they learn about
the strong sense of place and heritage of the School.
We must build an endowment which ensures that they
continue to be maintained to the highest standard,
without being a drain on School resources.
Additionally, projects such as the new Museum
in the Warden’s Stables give donors the added
opportunity to contribute to the fabric of the School.
We plan to renovate one of the mediaeval buildings to
form a vibrant and exciting Museum, which will enable

Donations received
(£’000)
An upward trend
Support for the Wykeham Campaign
is continuing to grow, both in donations
and in the number of gifts received.
As can be seen from the graph on page
40, we are enjoying support from the
largest number of donors the College
has had in recent years, if not ever.
The graph above shows a particularly
successful year in 2006. This can be
accounted for by several appeals,
specifically for capital projects such as
Chapel Stonework, College Improvements
and the final push for the Music School.
In addition, one significant gift was
received in anticipation of the conversion
of the Warden’s Stables.
It is particularly gratifying to note that
the level of donations is now matching
that enjoyed in 2006 in spite of the
absence of any major appeals for capital
projects. This reflects the determination
and commitment of the Governing
Body to support the School’s
development efforts.
35
I’d like to express my thanks to all who have supported the School in
any way; by attending events, volunteering, donating, leaving a legacy,
or by offering encouragement as a committee member. The School is
a worthy recipient of your support!
Robert Woods Chairman of the Development Committee
chaired by William Eccles (H, 1973-77), acts as a
forum to test ideas, and actively to support our
outreach programme. The Council has 12 Old
Wykehamist members from almost every House and
age group, and one past parent. It meets at lively
dinners twice a year to give unrestrained opinions on
subjects related to supporting the OW community
and to seeking its support for the School. Between
dinners the members are active in helping the School
in diverse ways of their own choosing. William is
always looking for keen new recruits — please let
David Fellowes know if you are interested!

students and visitors to explore the School’s collections
for inspiration, learning and enjoyment. The College’s
first museum, built in 1897, became the dons’ Common
Room in the 1980s and the collections were moved to
the Treasury, a converted beer cellar beneath the old
College kitchens, where they are currently displayed.
However, the present Treasury suffers from three
major problems: accessibility, atmosphere, and space.
The College would like to make its collections available
to the public and other schools as well as its own pupils.
We plan to take on a curator experienced in project
management to carry out the consultation with the
different user groups who have a vested interest in the
educational and outreach aspects of the project.
scope to offer musical opportunities to children who
could not otherwise enjoy them. It has been agreed
that we will have two funds: the Shedden Bursary
Fund, which provides bursaries and related financial
support (such as travel expenses) for Qs over and
above the automatic fee remission funded by Winchester
College, and the Quirister Endowment Fund, which is
the fund that helps Winchester College meet the costs
of maintaining Quiristers, including the automatic fee
remission for Qs.
A number of our more generous regular donors have
joined our Wykeham Patrons group, and are enjoying
a tailored event programme, including special cultural
trips, both in the UK and further afield. We have very
much enjoyed getting to know our Patrons in an
informal and social setting. I’d also like to take this
opportunity to recognise members of the William
Stanley Goddard Society (now renamed ‘the Goddard
Legacy Society’), who have indicated that they are leaving
a gift to Win Coll in their will. The membership is
growing (we now have 176 members), and I’d like to
encourage you to consider joining, if you haven’t already
done so. It is a very effective way of avoiding the tax man!
Finally, Winchester is the only school in existence
which provides for a resident ‘choir of angels’; the
Quiristers have been with us since 1382. They are the
basis of the School’s tradition of musical excellence,
the providers of the sense of holiness which was at the
heart of the Founder’s intention for the worship of God
in Chapel, and their training provides us with further
WINCHESTER COLLEGE ANNUAL REPORT 2010
I am pleased to report that we now have six members
of the Campaign Committee, all of whom have
demonstrated their commitment to Winchester
College by making a lead gift, and by demonstrating
their willingness to assist with the solicitation of others.
Beatrice Lupton, a former Quirister parent, is spearheading the Quirister Appeal and a considerable
amount of time has been spent on research and,
in particular, on expanding the Quirister database
with contact details.

Our specialist committees continue to assist and support
us in our endeavours. The Investment Committee, chaired
by Mark Loveday, gives donors reassurance that their
donations are well invested (see p.30); the Disbursement
Committee, chaired by Rob Wyke, the Second Master,
ensures that donations are directed appropriately and as
agreed; and the Winchester College Society Council,
WINCHESTER COLLEGE ANNUAL REPORT 2010
The American Friends of Winchester College are
now well established, and have an active programme
of engagement with the Wykehamical community.
We’ve listed the Directors in the Acknowledgement
section (p.45) and I would like to take this
opportunity to thank them for their tremendous
work in re-invigorating our presence in the US.
The Hong Kong Friends are also becoming
increasingly active in supporting the Wykeham
Campaign, and have formed the Wykeham
Campaign Sub-Committee under the
Chairmanship of Richard Wallace (Coll, 1968-72).
I’m extremely grateful to Richard and his
committee for the energy and enthusiasm they
have brought to the Campaign in Hong Kong.

How better to express appreciation for
the important role your school, or even
your son’s school, has played in
developing your mind and your general
attitude to life than to put something
back, in the hope that future generations
will be as fortunate? The lists and
graphs that follow demonstrate the
very considerable degree of support
from all corners that the School is
so fortunate in having received
during the year.
Donations were received from a record 979 donors,
an increase of 35% on the previous year and of
40% on the previous five-year average. Of these,
29 donors gave £10,000 or more during the year,
totalling £1,025k including Gift Aid, whilst the
remaining 950 contributed £650k, equating to an
average donation of £684 per donor, which
compares favourably with the previous year (£699).
New donors have also reached a new peak at 316,
being up 83% on the previous five-year average.
These are truly encouraging statistics, and the School
is extremely grateful for their fruits. Those making
unspecified or Annual Fund donations may be
interested to know that their generosity is enabling
the School better to afford several significant items
featured elsewhere in this Report, such as its
‘Green’ initiative, the King James Bible Exhibition,
Outreach and Sport.
Finally, we remain eternally grateful for the
reassuring support offered by the pledges many
of you make by way of a legacy. Interest in the
Goddard Legacy Society (until recently known as
the William Stanley Goddard Society) is growing.
The primary focus for legacies is to boost the
College’s Endowment, in support of Bursary
provision, the maintenance of its ancient buildings
and, of course, its Quiristers.
To all our donors we offer our most sincere thanks.

Robert Woods, as Chairman of the Development
Committee, has encouraged his readers on page 37
to consider leaving a legacy to Winchester College,
also drawing attention to the existence of tax benefits.
We have recently prepared a simple codicil form,
which has been approved by a Wykehamist lawyer
and which is readily available from the Development
Office. This is designed to make the process an
extremely easy and economic one for those wishing to
benefit the College in their wills, requiring merely the
intended value of the legacy and a signature, albeit in
the presence of two independent witnesses. Thereafter,
the codicil should be lodged safely with your will, thus
ensuring that its directions are incorporated (please!)
within any future will that may be made.
The tax benefits derived from leaving a charitable
legacy are both considerable and compelling, however
great or small its value. The current 40% rate of
Inheritance Tax enables a legacy worth, say, £50,000
to Winchester College to cost the deceased’s estate
only £30,000.
Usually testators direct us to use their legacies to
build up our endowment funds, which help us to
meet our long-term charitable objectives, primarily
bursaries, ancient buildings and Quiristers. These
funds are included with our other long-term assets
and carefully managed by the Investment Committee
(see Mark Loveday’s report on pages 30 and 31).
Our Disbursement Committee (see page 37) also
usually allocates those legacies which have no
particular strings attached to support those same
three objectives.
The Sub-Warden, Robin Fox (A, 1950-55), is the
Goddard Legacy Society’s Chairman. He hopes
very much, as I do, that all those who are leaving
the School a legacy will enable us to express our
appreciation to you in person by joining our legacy
society, for which events are arranged each year.
Please don’t hesitate to contact me (on 01962 621151
