Oakham School Archives

Explore the history of the school through the documents and objects that have been left behind...

Welcome

In 2021, Oakham School is celebrating 50 years of being co-educational. To partake in some of the celebrations, the Archives have created three special exhibitions focusing on co-education's impact on three distinct areas of school life: CCF, uniform, and the campus.

In this exhibition we explore the ever changing nature of school uniform and some of the more unusual uniform proposals; explore how the girls were admitted into the school's CCF and if the girls were given different tasks to the boys; and finally we look at how co-education changed and is still changing the school's campus.
