Culford School is a coeducational HMC and IAPS public school (including Preparatory and Pre-Preparatory Schools) for pupils age 3–18. Founded in 1881, it is situated in Culford, four miles north of Bury St Edmunds in Suffolk, England.

History

The school was founded as the East Anglian School for Boys, incorporating an institution founded in 1873 by Congregationalist minister, Dr John H. L. Christien. It was one of a group of Methodist schools established in response to the growth of the middle class, the launching of the Woodard Schools and the 1867 Taunton Commission, which fuelled an expansion of secondary education in general and of non-conformist boarding schools in particular. The original school was in Northgate Street in Bury St Edmunds, but in 1886 it moved to Thingoe Hill in the town (a site later occupied by the East Anglian School for Girls).

In 1935 the school moved to Culford Park, former home of the 7th Earl Cadogan, and thereafter became known as Culford School. It is at the centre of East Anglia, c.90 minutes from London, 60 from Norwich, 40 from Ipswich, and c.30 minutes from Cambridge.

The school sits in 480 acres (1.9 km2) of Repton parkland with grazing, formal gardens, lake, and the 16th-18th Century Culford Hall. Originally the Hall became dormitories and classrooms; the laundry the sanatorium; the forge the art and woodwork studios (now the Pringle Centre for Design Technology); and the stables the Junior Department (now the Preparatory School).

The first new building to be added was Cadogan House, for junior boys, in 1938. The Leigh Memorial Swimming Pool was built in the same year. The Skinner and Hastings buildings were added in the 1960s, followed during the 1970s-1990s by an auditorium, pre-prep school, medical centre and biology laboratories. Purpose-built boarding houses and the Ashby Dining Hall (named after the then Chairman of the Governors) were constructed in 1972.

Main School (Culford Hall) North Front

1972 was the year in which Culford amalgamated with its sister school, the East Anglian School for Girls (EASG), becoming one of the first co-educational HMC schools. New Houses were formed as follows:

Edwards House      Senior Boys (named after G. S. Edwards, French & hockey master, Deputy Headmaster 1923-1962)
Cornwallis House      Senior Boys (named after the Marquis Cornwallis of Culford Hall)
Jocelyn House      Senior Girls (name transferred from EASG)
Storey House      Sixth Form Co-educational House - closed 2003 (named after Dr C. Storey, Headmaster 1951-1971)
Robson House      Senior Day Boys - formed 1993 (named after D. Robson, Headmaster 1971-1992)
Fitzgerald House      Originally Junior Girls - Senior Day Girls since 2003 (name transferred from EASG)
Cadogan House      Junior School - later Prep School – Boys; Girls since 1996 (named after Earl Cadogan)

The school today

Culford is a selective school accepting pupils from a broad ability range. Half of the senior pupils are boarders. Three schools are housed within the Park:

Culford Prep School
  • Pre-Prep (Fieldgate House) is for day boys and girls from the ages of 3 - 7. Founded in 1984, it is set on the village side of Culford Park. The current headmistress is Mrs Sarah Preston.
  • The Preparatory School is a boarding and day school for pupils aged 8 – 13. It occupies the north of the Park, surrounded by its own pitches, but also uses Senior facilities. The present headmaster is Mr Mike Schofield, formerly a Senior housemaster. Upper 3 (year 8) entry to the Senior School is by Common Entrance.
  • The Senior School is also a mixed boarding and day school, for ages 13 – 18. The houses overlook parkland and pitches, with academic pursuits centred upon Culford Hall and the newer buildings. Pupils join from UK and overseas prep and maintained schools; scholarships, exhibitions, bursaries, Forces allowances and Methodist Schools assistance[1] are offered.

The ten thousand volume Library is an oak panelled room overlooking Culford Hall’s south front, completed for the visit of King Edward VII in December 1904. The Centenary Hall, containing a Studio Theatre opened in 2006 by HRH the Duke of Gloucester (twenty five years after his first visit for the school's centenary), is also within the main building.

The Culford Foundation has raised funds for a new Pre-Prep nursery and dining hall; an astro-turf; the William Miller Science Centre (built in 2002 following a £1m donation by an Old Culfordian); and the restoration of Culford Hall. The Foundation also maintains the Old Culfordians association.

Culford is a Christian Methodist foundation, and the Church supports the school[2] whilst accepting pupils of all faiths and none. There are nine acts of weekday worship plus Sunday services at St Mary's church - pupils who so wish are confirmed jointly as Methodists and Anglicans. The Chaplaincy provides compulsory chaplaincy studies until the Fifth Form (Year 11): a new Chaplaincy Centre opened in 2008.

A November 2008 inspection report by the Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI) states that the school is “outstanding” at the spiritual, moral, social and cultural development of pupils; in the quality of its pastoral care and boarding provision; and in its community links and its governance and management. The quality of the educational experience provided, and pupils’ learning and achievements, are “good, with many outstanding features;” and teaching is “good, and in a high proportion of lessons it is outstanding”.[3] A parallel Ofsted report rated boarding provision as outstanding;[4] and the Nursery, for children aged 3–4, was rated outstanding in every area by Ofsted inspectors in June 2008.

Academia

William Miller Science Centre

The ISI and the Good Schools Guide[5] state that the school performs well given the range of pupils’ abilities (corresponding to the top 60 per cent of the national range). Recent results include 53% of A-Level grades at A* or A in 2011; and 61% of GCSE grades at A* or A in 2009.[6] Generally c.10 per cent of the Upper Sixth go to Oxbridge. Culford has been amongst those schools commenting on the narrowness of league tables,[7] but it appears in the same range as rivals in the east of England.[8]

There is a Scholars Programme,[9] plus societies including for English, Art History and Medicine. Lecturers in 2009-11 include Sir Andrew Motion, Ann Widdecombe, George Alagiah and Henry Olonga.

A Sixth Form Enrichment Programme[10] offers Open University degree modules and pupils also compete in competitions such as the Intermediate Mathematical Challenge. Like many independent schools, Culford teaches the IGCSE[11] and in 2010, all of the pupils who took IGCSE mathematics a year early achieved A* or A grades. The Good Schools Guide claims that Culford has one of the six best maths departments in the country.

The school teaches pupils with special educational needs and for whom English is an additional language. Latin lessons are offered to pupils from local maintained schools. The pupil/staff ratio is approximately 1:10.[12]

The arts

The arts are co-ordinated by a Head of Art; Directors of Music and Drama; Heads of Strings, Wind and Brass; regular peripatetic music staff; and sometime Artists and Dramatists in Residence. Lamda qualifications are offered as are dance lessons. Culford has around twelve musical groups including two orchestras, a Choral Society, Chamber Choir, Wind Band, Jazz Band and Rock Society. Over half of the pupils learn an instrument. Boys from the Prep School may become choristers at St Edmundsbury Cathedral. Inter-house music competitions and termly concerts are held: recent concerts include Mendelssohn’s Elijah and Britten’s Noye's Fludde at the church in Orford where it was performed originally.

String and Wind Days are held for preparatory schools and the Suffolk Youth Orchestra is a regular visitor. Two major dramatic productions are staged each year, one musical and one stage play. Smaller productions are staged more regularly, including during House drama competitions. The Studio Theatre, the 400-seat Centenary Hall, and the Regency Theatre Royal are used as venues.

2009 saw the restoration of the west wing of Culford Hall to create the Beech Centre for Music and Performing Arts (part-funded by Old Culfordian David Beech). A recording studio in the cellars is to follow.

Recently The Daily Telegraph ran an article on drama at three schools including Culford Prep;[13] and Old Culfordian and BBC Producer Jon Jacobs re-visited the Music School to film for the The Proms.[14]

Sport and activities

The major competitive sports are rugby, cricket and particularly hockey, supplemented by tennis, netball and swimming. Regional honours are achieved whilst European and England players and champions in hockey, tennis, horse riding, karate, polo and rugby are on the school roll. Pupils compete in events such as the National Schools Rugby Sevens, and the Inter-Schools Hunter Trials.

Numbered amongst current Old Culfordians are an Olympic horserider, a British modern pentathlon champion,[15] a Welsh hockey international, and club rugby and cricket players for Richmond and Middlesex respectively. Previous generations of Old Culfordians have included several hockey players for England and one for Scotland, a captain of the Welsh team, and a Great British hockey Olympian; as well as an England badminton player.[16] The school has also produced numerous Oxford and Cambridge Blues.

In addition to the major sports, Culford offers a wide range of other sports and activities utilising its 480 acres (1.9 km2) of parkland and extensive facilities.

The CCF
Combined Cadet Force, Armistice Day 2009. 

Combined Cadet Force

The CCF's Army section is associated with the Army Air Corps and the First Battalion Royal Anglian Regiment. Training takes place on one afternoon of each week. Activities include shooting, expeditions, combat manoeuvres, ambush and continuity drills, signals training, orienteering, climbing, kayaking, first aid and lifesaving. The CCF also play an important role in the School’s annual Act of Remembrance on Armistice Day.

The CCF Contingent was inspected in 2007 by General Sir John McColl, an Old Culfordian, Colonel of the Royal Anglians and Deputy Supreme Allied Commander Europe. 2009’s inspection was carried out by Air Vice Marshal Richard Garwood, parent of a Culfordian and Chief of Staff (Operations) at Headquarters Air Command; and 2011’s by General the Lord Dannatt.

The current CCF is the successor to several individual service cadet forces, established during the two world wars and at various other stages, as well as to Culford’s Air Scouts troop which, in 1939, was amongst the first five to be established in the country and which grew to become the largest in eastern England prior to dwindling in the 1960s.

"Estote Fortes" (the school song)

The School Song is built around the motto (itself derived from 1 Corinthians, chapter 16, verse 13): Viriliter Agite, Estote Fortes – “Quit ye like men, be strong.”

Estote Fortes

St Mary’s Church, viewed from the main drive
When the task is dull and the days are long,
And the world is full of tears,
We shall hear from afar the tune of a song
Come rolling down the years.
Viriliter Agite Estote Fortes
Quit ye like men. Be Strong!
We shall hear the tramp of a thousand feet,
As the road goes sliding by,
And we'll feel again the throb of the beat
That keeps our Courage high.
Viriliter Agite Estote Fortes
Quit ye like men. Be Strong!
As we go forth to fight and to right what is wrong
And the work of the world to do,
The clarion call of the Old School Song,
Shall carry us bravely through
Viriliter Agite Estote Fortes,
Quit ye like men. Be Strong!

The Fifth Dinner Club

Lake and Iron Bridge

The name of the ‘Fifth Dinner Club’ (FDC) is derived from its foundation by five members of the Fifth Form - G G Hawes, R H Tuffs, Gaubert, Downs and Marley - to subvert the prefects. However the Fifth Formers eventually became prefects themselves and only prefects have been admitted as members ever since. The club’s activities are shrouded in secrecy and membership is only open to boys who pass an initiation test and are deemed worthy of participation. The club is associated with a motto, abbreviated to D.V.P.M. It is also associated with Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese pub on London’s Fleet Street, where members first dined in the 1930s and visit to this day. The FDC recently celebrated a reunion for members past and present, with over 100 old boys and current members enjoying a dinner in Suffolk with countless stories and plenty of wine. This event was also attended by the current Headmaster and some members of the Common Room. Other societies have been established from time to time to attempt to rival the FDC, possibly the most enduring being a girls’ club named ‘Viva,’ which has existed in periods since the 1980s.

Miscellanea

  • During the 1940s, Basil Brown, the amateur archaeologist most famous for his discovery of the Sutton Hoo Anglo-Saxon burial, worked as a stoker at the school. Enlisting the help of several Culford boys, he dug out two Roman pottery kilns at nearby West Stow, inspiring Stanley West to return two decades later to unearth what is now considered an important Anglo-Saxon settlement.
  • Recent construction of the indoor tennis centre unearthed the body of a Bronze Age child.
  • Backdrops of Culford Park, and particularly the thatched cricket pavilion, were featured in the BBC's Lovejoy series.
Senior Common Room
  • In September 1940, during the Battle of Britain, a German Junkers 88A-1 aircraft was shot down by the RAF over the school's lake, resulting in numerous fragments of the plane disappearing into Cadogan House as souvenirs.[50] Thanks to Old Boys, the School Archive now has a number of these fragments including the maker's plate and an oxygen bottle.
  • In 1999 The Sun ran the headline 'Pot Pupils Kicked Out at Toff School' after five pupils were caught smoking cannabis.
  • The school is featured in a 2005 Victorian crime novel by Ethard Wendel Van Stee as having turned out one James Lott, notorious swindler and one of the chief protagonists of the tale. Van Stee imagines Lott's father having "packed him off to join the first class at the East Anglian School for Boys, later the Culford School, in Bury St Edmunds, ostensibly to provide him with a good Christian education." Having "expected the school, in its mysterious way, to turn the son of a publican into a young gentleman," he would not be disappointed; "However, like ice cream, the products of the East Anglian School for Boys were turned out in distinctive flavours..."[51]
  • The Culford Masonic Lodge[52] numbers Old Culfordians and former staff amongst its members.
  • A bronze statue of the Victorian racing greyhound Master McGrath on the south lawns of Culford Hall led to some speculation that he is buried there.[53]
