No.127 advance of the planned visit, or by Friday midday for weekends: 01962 621227 or [email protected]. They should arrive at the Porters’ Lodge and not enter by any other gate and will be asked to produce identification and sign the OW or Don Soc visitors books; they will be issued with a The Trusty Servant visitor’s badge and lanyard, to be worn conspicuously during their visit, please, and returned as they leave through the same gate. They will also be given a map showing the areas of the school that may be visited. Safeguarding and Child Protection regulations become ever tighter and OWs and ex-staff are no longer allowed to come and go at will. If you wish to visit a boarding house, please make contact with the housemaster well in advance to see if this is possible and please do not turn up on the doorstep unannounced.
