Framlingham College has a long and proud history and thrives today on two sites.
The Senior School sits in a commanding position within 75 acres of land that includes Framlingham Mere, while the Prep School at Brandeston Hall nestles in 27 acres of meadow land on the banks of the Deben.
Our mission at Framlingham is to provide an environment whereby every pupil is given the platform to create their own story by immersing themselves in limitless academic, artistic, and sporting opportunities regardless of their geography, background or financial means.
The Framlingham College Foundation campaign aims to support the long-term financial sustainability of the College.
By creating an endowment fund whereby your donation (capital) is invested in perpetuity enabling the Foundation to utilise the investment income generated annually to support life changing transformational bursary provision, we can create a more sustainable financial model. This will enable the College to become more financially sustainable by utilising a greater percentage of fee income to manage the financial impact of the current political and economic climate whilst increasing the bursarial support in the coming years for pupils from socially disadvantaged backgrounds.
Contributing to this fund continues the philanthropic tenets started by Queen Victoria, Pembroke College and Sir John Edward Cornwallis Rous, Earl of Stradbroke, who was Lord Lieutenant of Suffolk when Prince Albert died, and started the appeal to raise funds for Framlingham College. Our philanthropic heritage, which resulted in the College as we know it today, was continued by subsequent major benefactors such as Sir Edward Clarence Kerrison, Emile Edouard Moreau (OF, 1871-72) and Frederick William Brook, fifth Baron Rendlesham. By supporting this fund, you will not only continue, but be part of, this legacy and preserve Framlingham’s heritage, providing value that reaches far beyond the exceptional education received.
I have just retired at 75, and anything I have achieved in life I owe to the start I was given at Framlingham, and I have been happy to do what I can to repay that debt.”
Jim Butchart, Old Framlinghamian
