The Salopian Club

Annual Plan 2016 -17

Objects

The objects of the Club are:

1. To encourage links and fellowship between Salopians of all ages2. To organise activities (sporting, cultural, social, business) in support of (1)3. Together with the Governors, School, Shrewsbury School Parents’ Association (SSPA) and Foundation, to promote

Old Salopians’ knowledge of and involvement in the success, development and prosperity of the School4. To help Salopians make the transition into their working lives and support the development of their careers.

Objectives

Given where the Club is currently positioned the overarching objective for the next 3-5 years is to create a more vibrant Salopian community. In order to achieve this the Club has set the following specific objectives:

1. To improve communications to all audiences, with particular emphasis on younger generations and the provision of more news on Old Salopians, where possible by electronic means and social media

2. To raise the number of actively participating Old Salopians in Club events to 25% of the membership in 5 years and thereafter maintain that level.

3. To make Club events especially attractive to younger members so they remain Salopians for life4. To extend the fellowship of sporting clubs to arts and other activities so as to appeal to a broader range of

Salopians5. To provide a comprehensive careers advice and support network to benefit Salopians of all ages6. To increase involvement of all leavers in Club activities7. To strengthen the relationship between the Club, SSPA and the School

Strategic Plan 2014-19

The 5-year Strategic Plan and Financial Plan were approved in 2014. The increases in Club membership subscriptions have made the Strategic Plan affordable. This Annual Plan and Budget covers the period from August 2016 to July 2017 and is the third year of the revised Strategic Plan (2014-19). The format and content are therefore based on the Strategic Plan.

PRIORITIES FOR 2016/2017

GeneralOver the past year the Club has delivered effectively against its communications, events and sports programmes. Its careers programme continues to evolve with the appointment of a Careers Fellow. Arts and Activities are achieving additional focus, and the Club has acquired an IT solution to improve communication to and between members.

EventsThe Club will seek to improve the quality and attendance at its three drinks receptions (the City, Birmingham and Shrewsbury) and aim for increased numbers at OS Day. Henley, the Birmingham Dinner, and the Young Members’ London party will also remain part of its core programme. It will steadily build up the number of its regional, university and overseas representatives and provide administrative support for any smaller scale events there. It will also seek to organise themed events involving Salopian connections and, where possible, involve the SSPA on a reciprocal basis.

SportWe shall continue the established programme of sporting events and seek to develop more women’s sport as former female pupils graduate from university. We shall encourage current Salopian sports men and women to join OS sports clubs by a combination of house visits, closer liaison between sports staff and their OS counterparts, and timely reminders to year group cohorts as they graduate and enter the workplace.

Arts and ActivitiesArts and Activities are acquiring an additional focus to develop a programme of events, some in conjunction with the School, during 2016-2017.

3

CareersThe appointment of a Careers Fellow, her involvement at all levels within the School, and the development of professional interest groups has resulted in the Club acquiring significant additional standing within the School and OS community. The Club will seek to involve more Old Salopians and parents in providing careers advice to Salopians of all ages.

CommunicationsA successful outcome has been reached in acquiring an IT solution to allow members access to services via a members’ area, with an initial pilot scheme planned for the Young OS Committee.

AdministrationA part time administrative assistant to keep the database up to date will continue to be needed for 2016/2017.

CAREERS PROGRAMMEAnnual Plan 2016-17

IntroductionSince January 2016, the new Careers Fellow has focused on continuing to deliver the existing careers programme whilst maintaining and expanding the existing network of OS, parents and other professionals engaged in supporting the guidance offered to pupils past and present. The past four months have offered an opportunity to review, to some extent, the initiatives of the annual plan 2015-16 and an update is provided in the 5th column below.Any initiatives, new or existing, will need to be revisited with the eventual launch of Potentiality.

Database Infrastructure

Raiser’s Edge database will transition to Potentiality, with its new Careers section; all existing data from RE will be merged to the new Potentiality site, with option for alumni to update their information

Alumni will be constantly updating their profiles with accurate professional content. New alumni will enter their HE information, creating the Salopian Club university groups. Volunteers for events, talks and advice will emerge through the profile input. Searching by professions will enable establishment of Potentiality-based groups administered by the Careers Fellow, which will replace the Professional Groups.i These groups will then be encouraged to network

Potentiality still not yet live.Raiser’s Edge still in use.Linkedin remains a better source of more active information about the professional status of OS and many volunteers have been recruited this way in the past 4 months to offer advice to current Salopians and other OS to attend the careers conference.

Potentiality Careers Profiles (to complement Salopian Club LinkedIn group)

Old Salopians and Infrastructure

Club Administrator to oversee; Careers Fellow currently uses LinkedIn for contacting OS as RE not up to date with business information

Revised expectation since 2014 that Potentiality profiles will be more useful to the Careers Fellow and the Club than LinkedIn group as a resource for identifying potential speakers.New professional networking groups will emerge through the Potentiality profiles, which will enable networking of OS via professional commonalities, and largely replace the Professional Groups for functionality.

In the absence of Potentiality, the current Careers Fellow is establishing a growing network of OS to support careers through Linkedin and encouraging 6th form students to set up their own Linkedin profiles to facilitate their networking directly with OS. Linkedin has proved very useful in making and updating connections and booking OS speakers for the careers conference in June.

Difficult to ascertain in relation to Potentiality; LinkedIn will still be an independently useful resource to OS outside the Salopian community

Old Salopians

OS will continue to contribute expertise to the School’s and the Club’s Careers Education Programme

Building on the L6 Careers Fair and the Lent Term Careers Talks to engage more OS in sharing their expertise with current pupils.Using Potentiality to increase the numbers of OS identified as willing to give advice and talks to current pupils and OS

The network of OS willing to contribute to careers provision continues to grow and develop. This has been particularly effective this year in engaging younger OS to whom the current pupils can relate and who are enthusiastic (and encouraged by their employers), at an early stage in their careers, to share their experience.

University Groups

Young Old Salopians

Young OS at university will want to network with each other

Potentiality will enable the identification of OS at universities and enable establishment of social/networking groups and events.Also valuable to Dympna Nightingale in her HE advising to current pupils

The current Careers Fellow would like to progress, with or without Potentiality, the establishment of university-based ‘cells’, focusing on a small number that are the most popular destinations for Salopians: Manchester, Bristol, London and Oxford. These 4 have the greatest concentration of OS and coincidentally cover a wide geographical area. She would like to allocate time in the Michaelmas term, to visit Salopians in their first year at university to establish the groups with a launch event in each location to which OS students in neighbouring universities could also be invited.

4 launch events held and well-attended by students.

Fellow either directly or through the Club. Advice was given by phone and email and also 4 OS visited the Careers Fellow in person. The Careers Fellow regularly posts live job and internship opportunities on the Club Facebook page and this, combined with the development of university networks should lead to an increase in contact with OS in the future.

School’s Careers Education Programme

Current Salopians

School continues to deliver the bespoke Careers Education Programme through the new Careers Fellow and Dympna Nightingale

Fully integrated bespoke Careers Education Programme has been running in 2014-15 from 3rd Form to Upper Sixth, preparing pupils for all aspects of HE and careers decision-making; no reason to expect that this will change.No specific goals for the coming year other than continued delivery of the programme

The CEIAG programme continues as before. The Careers Fellow is currently evaluating the various national accredited quality awards to assess which one the School could and should aim for.

Engagement levels of pupils, positive feedback from parents and staff (already received)

Established networks for contacting parents: weekly School newsletter, Housemasters

Parent engagement via mass request has been very low, excepting direct contact with individuals who generally respond very positively. Last year’s goal of the Parents’ Work

At parents’ meetings at the School, the Careers Fellow has addressed parents and invited them to contact her if willing to offer help. This has so far resulted

Professional Networks

Current Salopians and Old Salopians

Potentiality will enable emergence of larger and more informal groups of OS willing to share their advice and experience than the Professional Groups have done

PGs in Medicine, Banking/Finance, IT, Entrepreneurs, Advertising/Marketing/PR, Law, Property, Business have not established with universal success. Potentiality will enable connection of OS in different professions to the goal of networking with each other, as well as identifying volunteers to speak and advise. Careers Fellow will contact potential speakers directly, rather than liaising with a Group Leader

Professional groups would be more effective and cohesive if they were linked to a specific and ongoing activity in the School. For example: the Careers Fellow has been working with a local law firm to establish some regular and structured activities and insights for a group of pupils specifically interested in law careers. A 6th form student has been given a liaison role, working closely with a trainee lawyer at the firm to co-ordinate events. OS working in the field have also been targeted to support some of these such as a court visit accompanied by an OS barrister. This model could be extended to other professional groups. Eventually,

groups would be run by pupils themselves in School as this would enhance their networking, mentoring and organisational skills as well as providing evidence of super-curricular activity for their personal statements.

School Professional Dinners

Current Salopians and Old Salopians

Professional Networks identified, looser than the Professional Groups

PROPOSED: Pilot networking reception for one or two Professional Networks to meet, to get the Networks going as an idea that worksPROPOSED: Pilot networking reception for one or more of the PNs with pupils at School, possibly additionally to the Careers Fair networking reception and at a different time of year.

Not established.It is not necessarily desirable, easy or convenient for OS to travel to the School. This is always going to be an issue when trying to establish regular events. Constraints of time and travel mean it might be better to establish professional groups in the local region, which may be a mixture of OS and non-OS professionals, who are motivated by community and corporate responsibility to engage with Schools (see law example above).

Engagement and feedback by pupils.Support from staff. Engagement by Professional Network members, OS and parents

i The OS Professional Groups have not taken hold as anticipated as a way of connecting the School to OS willing to help with Careers. In Finance, the group works generally well, despite leader Charles Tongue now being in Washington, DC, and the Entrepreneurs have also been very successful as a group for the Careers Fair 2014 and the Entrepreneurship Activity 2015. But the other groups have not become established due to very minimal response to requests from the Careers Fellow for participation. Generally, the CF approaches any potential speaker or contact directly via their RE or Linkedin profiles when help is required, and OS are usually willing to assist with advice, though not with work experience opportunities. It is hoped that Potentiality will be a means by which OS will be able to engage more directly with supporting Careers when they enter and update their personal profiles, meaning that the resource comes to the Club, as it were, rather than the other way around. Groups of professionals in various sectors will then emerge naturally through those who make themselves available, and the CF/Club Administrator will be able to contact them for help as required, rather than relying on an intermediary OS or parent to do so. (KD 2015).

ARTS AND ACTIVITIES PROGRAMME 2016-17

1. EventsProvisional plans for the year 2016-17 include:

An Open Mic Evening in conjunction with the Young OS branch of the club; Evensong at Westminster Abbey A Joint Orchestral Concert at Cadogan Hall, London on Sunday 12th March 2017 to be conducted by John Moore and

Fergus Macleod OS/School Play in a Day Further theatrical events and an exhibition of art by OS. Dates and details for all these events will be confirmed in the autumn.

2. BudgetGiven the current level of activity there does not at present appear to be a strong reason for increasing the Arts budget.

3. PotentialityAs and when the Club succeeds in launching the Potentiality arm of its new website, it is to be hoped that all such artistes will be kept in better touch with one another’s activities.

4. The CommitteeThe present Committee is a loosely based group of youngish Old Salopians, musicians, actors and artists. It may well be that in time sub-committees will be formed for particular activities. The Committee is also still predominantly male. We will

continue our efforts to bring in more female members, whilst attempting to maintain cohesion of the group. Once again, the Chairman is most grateful to deputy chairman Henry Southern for his strong and ongoing support.

Old Salopian Football ClubAnnual Plan 2016/2017

Overall objectives for 2016/2017

1. Continue to grow the Club in terms of active playing members in line with 15/16 increases. The active playing members that play (for example) 65% of fixtures currently stands at around 50 members – to my knowledge, the highest in recent times.

2. Continue to develop the well-established links with the School to identify new players.3. 1st XI targets: a top half finish in the premier division for the first time in a decade, win the Arthur Dunn Cup.4. 2nd X1: target promotion from Division 3.5. Vets – win Derrick Moore Cup, increase number of friendlies.6. Make use of the surplus in the accounts for targeted approach to younger players such as subsidising: (i) travel expenses to

games; and (ii) their involvement in the Club tour during the August Bank Holiday weekend (see more below).Calendar of Events to support our objectives:August Bank Holiday Weekend 2016 – Club Tour to Prague

- 2-3 fixtures against local opposition16

- Encourage students/new player involvement- Self-funded tour, club contribution for students- 35 members have already expressed interest. 22 members of the Club attended the tour to Berlin during the same bank

holiday weekend in 2015.

Saturday 1 October 2016: Schools game and drinks, Shrewsbury- 4 regular sides playing versus School 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th XI’s- Vets XI playing Schools side- Post-match teas and drinks at Schools- Post-match drinks at Boathouse

17 November 2016 – City Drinks- OFSC attendance to promote football club and encourage new members

December 2016 Christmas drinks- Drinks for current and former players – venue tbc in SW London (Magic Garden Pub in Battersea in 2015).

May 2017 Club end of season dinner- Annual dinner for current and former players and other halves – London- As per event planned for 13 May 2016

Other activities- Contribute 2 pieces to Salopian magazine (tour report plus season report)

FinancialThe Club is in the process of moving away from a subscription-based model to a fairer pay-as-you-play model. This season has been the first season where we have asked members for a £10 match fee for both home and away games (previously £5 for home games only). This has been in place alongside the £90 subscriptions. This therefore explains the significant surplus at the end of next year. Budgeting and cost of membership will be discussed at the AGM in May and if needs be, a revised Budget will be submitted. This initiative has been put in place as a result of the deficit suffered by the Club last year and the feeling in the Club that members would like to pay more money (on a fairer basis) in return for better services provided by the Club and also to use money contributed by members to target younger potential members of the Club through initiatives such as subsidising travel to games and subsidising attendance on Tour.
