Don't worry - the College is sticking with rugby!

Concerns about the College's commitment to rugby prove unfounded
13 May 2022

Readers of today's Daily Telegraph (13 May 2022) may have been puzzled by a prominent picture of rugby training on College Field which accompanied an article headlined 'Private schools switching from rugby to football'.

To reassure those of you who may have inferred from this that the College was taking a major part in moving away from rugby, we are pleased to say that we are not.

In fact, the College is not mentioned in the article at all, and it is something of a mystery as to why the Telegraph chose to use this picture to illustrate the piece.

However, we are, of course, always pleased when an image of the College is used as an example of all that is best in independent education, showcasing our healthy and safe location on the south coast. Ex Oriente Salus!
