"Over the last 2 years much has been accomplished due to the generosity of Old Cheltonians. I am truly delighted and moved at the warmth that has been shown towards College. School fees meet the running costs of College but leave little left over for improvements to our physical structure and for other developments; this is why your support is so needed. I hope you will consider supporting your College as our renaissance gathers pace and as we look to regain our place as one of the leading schools in the UK." Dr Alex Peterken, Headmaster of Cheltenham College.

The Development Office exists to develop relationships with OCs, parents and friends to invest in the future of College.

Fees pay for the running costs alone. For College to be able to develop its facilities, expand into new areas of teaching and learning, provide increased extra curricular opportunity, and widen participation to those who would not be able to afford to pay for a College education; the support and involvement of our OCs, parents and others is crucial and most welcome.

Through recent support, College has just refurbished the Library and Big Classical. There are still opportunities to get involved and support this work through naming a seat within Big Classical - please click here to learn more!

We have also recently launched the Regular Giving programme for 2012. This year, each new regular gift will go even further because of a generous matching fund that will add £50 to the gift. With your support we will be able to fund some projects of immediate need across both Schools and increase our ongoing bursary provision, not only for current pupils but also for generations of Cheltonians to come.
