136: Partnerships and Service with Alastair Chirnside, Warden, St. Edward's School, Oxford



Finding ways to connect your school with its local community continues to be a top priority for many schools in 2023.


It’s a topic we’ve discussed before on this podcast and in this episode my guest speaker Alastair Chirnside, Warden at St Edward's School in Oxford, talks about how successful service and partnership arrangements can be when they are interwoven into the life of the school.


Alastair tells us about Beyond Teddies, which is the school’s umbrella project for all its partnerships work, community service and fundraising. He explains the value of creating connections and communities, to both build a strong culture of service to others and to enhance the intellectual life of a school.
