St Paul’s Telephone Campaign 2024

Shaping Our Future: Next Steps

Building our community and keeping its members connected to the school is a significant priority for St Paul’s. To this end, we have enlisted a team of bright and dedicated recent Pauline leavers who will be phoning our network of Old Paulines from Wednesday 28 August to Tuesday 10 September 2024. The team are looking forward to hearing their fellow Old Pauline’s stories of St Paul’s, the paths they have taken since, and sharing our vision for the Shaping Our Future: Next Steps campaign. Whilst the team won’t be able to contact all Old Paulines during this time, if you do not hear from them during this time and are interested in hearing more about how you can support St Paul’s, please get in touch with the Development Office at development@stpaulschool.org.uk or on 020 8746 5343.

Our Shaping Our Future: Next Steps campaign focuses on the mid-term next steps in our commitment to widening access to a St Paul’s education through bursaries and growing our partnerships to ensure St Paul’s remains open to all and representative of wider society, at the heart of our local community. To deliver in these areas, we are looking to invest an additional £8.5m over the next two years across bursaries and partnership work. It is going to take time and the full support of our community, for which we are greatly appreciative and hope you will join us.
