The Uppingham Association

The Uppingham Association was founded in 1911 to maintain the link between OUs and the School. The majority of boys and girls become members when they leave and a database of their names, addresses, school and career details is maintained at the School by the OU Administrator. In addition to a range of OU events that are organised each year for members, a magazine is published annually, which contains news about OUs and activities at the School, and all members are encouraged to make full use of the new OU Website (http://www.olduppinghamian.co.uk), more details below.

The OU Website In 2007 the OU wesbite was launched.  This a new service helps leavers stay in touch with each other and the School, find jobs, career advice and much more. On joining the OU Association, members will be provided with secure log-in details so that they may access the website (http://www.olduppinghamian.co.uk) and use its various applications, such as: - finding OU contacts who may be able to offer mentoring or work experience - searching for jobs registered by other OUs - updating personal and career details - adopting an ‘olduppinghamian’ email address for life - making contact with lost OU friends and contemporaries - getting tickets for OU events and reunions - joining OU clubs and societies The website, launched with the financial support of an OU, is part of a wider strategy which aims to make Uppingham a ‘School for Life’. When parents invest in an Uppingham education for their child, we want to have the tools in place for Uppingham to help that child long after they have left School, through business and social networking opportunities.  The website is still in its infancy and we would welcome comments from OUs and parents to help maximise its potential.

The Association is run on a day-to-day basis by the Hon Secretary of the Uppingham Association, Richard Boston (B 56, former Master and Housemaster at Uppingham), and the OU Administrator, Nicola Tyers.
