Meet the OPs Committee

The Old Princethorpians Committee is going from strength to strength. The Committee has recently welcomed some new members and now numbers 20 with additional support from key Foundation staff.

The committee comprised of past pupils from across the decades and associated schools of the Foundation, former parents, form and current longstanding members of staff and representatives from the current Sixth Form student body.

The work of the OP Committee is underpinned and directed by these foundational pillars: 

• Communications, Connectivity and Inclusivity 
• Careers, Networking and Volunteering

• OP Leadership and Responsibilities
