INTRODUCTION Discussions concerning how Dean Close School might go about honouring distinguished Old Decanians (ODs) in a variety of different fields began in the Spring of 2015 between the Bursar, Adrian Bowcher; the then Warden, Jonathan Lancashire; the Whole School Leadership Team and Charles Whitney (School Historian).

Those discussions led to the setting up of a working party to consider all the options. Members of the Working Party consisted of Georgina Hildick-Smith (representing female Old Decanians, present Dean Close School staff and Oxbridge); Alex Hume (Old Decanian Society and male Old Decanians); Tracey Colbert-Smith (Marketing); Amy Loveys (Editing and Design); Grace Pritchard-Woods (Archivist and Secretary to the group); Richard Taylor (former Dean Close Staff); and Charles Whitney (Compiler) who acted as chairman.

The Working Party met twice and their findings were presented to the Warden before the start of the 2015-16 academic year. The Warden was pleased to accept all the recommendations. Broadly, it was felt that those areas of achievement that were already on display in the School, notably in drama, music and sport, should remain. It was thought that what was wanted was information about any distinguished ODs or careers or areas of endeavour to be instantly available and accessible across Dean Close School and the Prep School. It should also be flexible and able to be periodically updated where appropriate. The answer is this E-book, available through the Dean Close School website. There is also a hard copy version. It has been divided into three sections.

Section One. This section contains the names of those who have been honoured in some way – military awards both for gallantry and service from this country and abroad; civil awards from the MBE through to a life peerage; foreign awards; academic and occupational awards such as prizes, medals or other marks of distinction. Where known, some information about gallantry awards has been given.

Section Two. This section is about distinguished careers, occupations and voluntary achievements.

Section Three. This section deals with all sporting distinctions, notably those who have represented their country in their chosen sport.

I would like to record my thanks to the late Richard Padfield, OD, for many years a member of staff and Housemaster. He was also OD Registrar, OD School Secretary and OD President at various times. His ‘notes in the margin’ of OD registers have left often invaluable clues as to what happened to various ODs. Without his dedication this list would not be as comprehensive as it is.

I would like to thank Felicity Copp, Adam Hathaway, Connie Parker and my colleagues in the Working Party for their time and for their positive approach. The Working Group has continued to meet to monitor entries so that standards are not allowed to drop. I am very grateful to Grace Pritchard- Woods, Alex Hume and particularly Amy Loveys for their considerable additional contributions; and also David Evans and Richard Taylor for their pain-staking proof-reading and suggestions.

C. E. Whitney,

October 2016
