Old Wordsworthians’ Association

The Alumni of former students of Bishop Wordsworth's School

Welcome to the Old Wordsworthians’ Association.

Our purpose is to provide opportunities for alumni to keep in touch and make contributions to the school and its students.

Old Wordsworthians’ Association

We publish an annual newsletter which gives news of alumni and developments at the school. Our principal reunion is at Founders Day when we hold our AGM and meet socially over lunch.

Our contributions to the school take the form of equipment, technology and educational support. We also fund student prizes and help with the cost of visits to university open days.

We have some 500 members.

OWA website Alumni Directory

One of the main objectives of this website is to enable members of the Association to keep/get in touch with other members. For this purpose the site contains an Alumni Directory with profiles of members who have agreed to have their names and information about themselves included.

Individual members determine what information is displayed on their profile. The format provides spaces for

• a recent photograph
• full name
• current job or last job before retirement
• interests
• postal address and/ or email
• years at school,

To protect privacy, access to the Directory is via login consisting of personal username and password. Once access is gained the entire Directory is available for viewing. Members are able to update their entry as they wish.

Existing members please sign in here

The membership fee is £xx/year. To apply for membership please email secretary Mick Way at mikeway41@gmail.com with details of your name and years at school.

The Association takes responsibility for updating the Directory in the event of learning of a member's death.
