Oakham School Archives

BES
Subfonds
1802 - 2020

A collection which focuses on the history of the school campus and buildings. There is an excellent photographic record of the school campus including the development of both houses and teaching buildings.

The collection contains architectural plans for buildings and press releases/ photographs of the opening of new additions to the school campus.

This sub-fonds contains general policy documents more relevant to the estates and IT daily functions.

The three series divide this sub-fonds amongst buildings, campus services, and IT.
