Peter Symonds College is a sixth form college in Winchester, Hampshire, England. The college is recognised as the largest sixth form in England and is noted for the high number of its students which progress to Oxbridge. ^{[3] [4]}

Peter Symonds College traces its origins to Christes Hospitall, a charitable institution established through the will of Peter Symonds, a prosperous Tudor merchant. ^[5] In 1896 the charity established the College as a grammar school for boys.

Peter Symonds serves as the official sixth-form college of the Falkland Islands, housing a boarding house named Falkland Lodge. ^[6] It is one of the very few sixth form colleges which also serve as a boarding school. ^[7]

History

The Life of Peter Symonds

Peter Symonds was born in Winchester in 1528, the son of the city's bailiff John Symonds and his wife Joan, during the reign of King Henry VIII. Peter was sent to London in 1542, where he served as an apprentice to William Wilkinson, a London sheriff and alderman. Following the death of William Wilkinson in 1543, Peter continued in the service of his widow, Joan. Joan had served as a silkwoman in Anne Boleyn's household, and was close friends with leading Protestant reformers, most notably the Oxford Martyrs: Archbishop of Canterbury Thomas Cranmer, Nicholas Ridley, and Hugh Latimer.

When the reformers were imprisoned for their beliefs during the early years of the reign of Queen Mary I, Joan Wilkinson acted as their advocate and supplied them with necessities. Archbishop Cranmer advised her to leave England and promote Protestantism from the safety of the continent. After Bishops Ridley and Latimer were executed, Joan became a religious exile in Frankfurt, where she died in December 1556 at the house of her cousin, Cuthbert Warcop, a London mercer, and his wife, Anne. Her place of burial is unknown. Joan Wilkinson's will opens with a declaration that she was in "voluntarie exile for the true religion of Christ", and among her bequests were £6 13s. 4d. left to Peter Symonds who was still living in London. ^{[8] [9]}

Symonds became a successful mercer, and was one of the three wardens of the Worshipful Company of Mercers in 1583. He married Anne Symonds by 1576 and moved to the parish of All Hallows, Lombard Street, at about this time. In 1582, he was among the richest of the city, and one of the two richest men in his parish. J. N. Hare attributes this wealth to the cloth trade that "dominated London's exports". ^[10]

By his death, sometime between 24 April 1586 and 29 July 1587, he had accumulated a large amount of land in the South East of England. In his will, he left land and property in Chadwell and West Ham in Essex, and a farm at East Shalford in Surrey, to his wife. Then following her death, he directed that a group of trustees, including his brother William, Mr. Bilson as warden of the New College at Winchester, and four others, should secure a licence and an act of parliament for an almshouse to be constructed at Winchester named Christes Hospital. In addition, he left annual payments for a number of charitable purposes, including the poor of All Saint, Lombard Street and Chadwell in Essex. ^[11]

It was this almshouse that was to become Peter Symonds College; however, legal struggles over Symonds' land delayed construction. Richard Symonds, who claimed to be Peter's sole heir, occupied the property at Ingleby in Chadwell and Temple Marsh in West Ham before selling them, breaking the terms of Peter's will. By 1600, after reportedly paying £280, the Winchester city corporation secured the land. It is unknown when exactly the almshouse was constructed, though it was in progress in 1604, and has been accepted to be complete by 1607. King James I gave royal consent for the hospital in 1615, thus giving the hospital legal status. ^[12]

Early Years as a Grammar school

In 1896 permission was obtained from the Charity Commissioners to establish a grammar school for boys. The school was opened in 1897 with 59 boys in temporary accommodation in 39 Southgate Street. Mr Telford Varley, who had been second master at the Royal Grammar School in Guilford became the school’s Headmaster. By the end of 1899 the permanent school buildings were opened at the present site.

In 1906 approval was obtained from the Board of Education and the County’s Director of Education to build a house for the Headmaster.

In 1913 the amalgamation was organised with Trafalgar House School. This was a school based in Trafalgar Street, just below Westgate. It had been run for a 100 years by the Naish family. The number of pupils at Peter Symonds before the amalgamation was about 150 and 35 boys joined from Trafalgar House.

After World War I the library was built as a war memorial to pupils and Old Symondians who had died in the war. Within only two years the number of pupils had risen to 200 to 250. Telford Varley retired as headmaster in 1926. He was replaced by Dr. Percy Tom Freeman, who had worked at King Edward VI School, Southampton as head of Science.

Later Years as a State School

The School continued to grow under Dr Freeman as headmaster until after World War II when the state education system was established and Peter Symonds became a voluntary controlled school. This resulted in the abolition of fees and free textbooks were provided. Dr Freeman was due to retire in 1957 but died in harness in August 1956. The school now had 650 pupils and needed extra accommodation. Dr Freeman was replaced by John Shields who was headmaster from 1957 to 1963. The school received funds to expand and provide more accommodation to meet the needs of the school.

The late 1960s saw the rise of comprehensive education. The Hampshire County Council reorganised education in the county rapidly whilst other counties dragged their feet to maintain their grammar schools. It was decided to make Peter Symonds a sixth form college during this time and other schools in the Winchester area would be feeders providing education for the years 11 to 16. John Ashurst left in 1971 to be replaced by Stuart Nicholls who had the task of overseeing the change in the status of the school to sixth form college. The school became a college in 1974 and the last grammar school intake left in 1979. In the early 1990s Neil Hopkins replaced Stuart Nicholls as Principal of the college.

In 1991 the Trustees of the Alms Houses, Christ’s Hospital, arranged for the remaining portion of Peter Symonds’ Foundation to be amalgamated with the Winchester Charity, known as St. John’s Hospital and Allied Charities.

In the late 1990s or early 2000s, for reasons unknown (but possibly because of the difficulty students and correspondents had in spelling the college's name correctly), the College dropped the possessive apostrophe from its founder's name in its official title, and is now known as Peter Symonds College.

College life

Admissions

The college has 4000 students aged 16–18, mainly from central Hampshire, but also British Forces teenagers from Germany and Cyprus, and residents of the Falkland Islands, who live on campus in one of the two boarding houses, Falkland Lodge and School House. ^[13] The Falkland Islands Government pays for each student to board at Peter Symonds if they achieve at least five "C" grades in their GCSEs. Therefore, in 2005 principal Neil Hopkins described the institution as "the official sixth-form college for the Falkland Islands". ^[14] The college has a separate site in Winchester where it provides courses for some 2000 adult students. ^[15]

Curriculum

Most students at Peter Symonds take three A levels, with some taking other vocational courses. However, some students take four or more A levels in their first year and continue with either three or four A levels in their second year. The Level 3 Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) is offered at the college. ^[16]

Amongst the subjects on offer at the college are Fine Art, Photography, Three-Dimensional Design, Textiles, Biology, Business, Chemistry, Classical Civilisation, Computing, Criminology, Dance, Drama, Economics, English Language, English Literature, Environmental Studies, Film Studies, French, German, Geography, Politics, Graphics, Health & Social Care, History, ICT, Law, Italian, Mathematics, Further Mathematics, Media Studies, Music, Philosophy, PE, Physics, Product Design, Psychology, Religious Studies, Sociology, Spanish and Statistics. ^[16] The college is one of the few sixth form colleges offering Latin at both AS and A level. ^[16]

Courses are available at AS Level, A-level, BTEC Level 2 National Certificate, BTEC Level 3 National Certificate and GCSE at the college. ^[16]

Extra-curricular activities

At one time the college produced an online magazine named The BUZZ, written and edited by students, which replaced Converse in 2008 but has since ceased to circulate. ^[17] There was a student produced college radio station, 7Radio, operating until roughly 2014. ^[18] This was revived in 2022, establishing the student-led Symonds Radio, who currently produce ad-hoc programming in partnership with Outreach Radio. ^[19]

All students at the college must take part in at least one activity, ^[20] including sports and societies. There are some accredited activities offered by the college. Students also must take part in a set number of "workshops" each year – these are additional time spent doing work in each subject outside of lessons with teachers. In addition, all students attend the "Symonds Lecture Programme", a replacement for General Studies, in which information is delivered in university-style lectures.

The UK Rock Challenge, Duke of Edinburgh's Award, ^[21] First Aid, Practical Wildlife Conservation, Choir, Harry Potter Appreciation Society, Libra Foundation, Fencing, Debating and Fantasy Football are all activities on offer at Peter Symonds College. ^[22]

Boarding

Approximately eighty students board at the school circa 2005. ^[14] Students board at the two houses; School House and Falkland Lodge. Boarders are typically from British Armed Forces families or the Falkland Islands. The college and the Falkland Islands government made an agreement for the college to accommodate students from the Falkland Islands. A second boarding house, Falkland Lodge, was built as part of this agreement, and was funded by the Falkland Islands. There were more boarding houses when the college was a boys' grammar school: Wyke Lodge, which is now the environmental studies block, and Kelso, which is home to the music department.

Sports

The college has teams in the following sports: athletics, American flag football, badminton, basketball, cheerleading, cricket, cross country, equestrian, football, hockey, lacrosse, netball, rugby, squash, swimming, tennis, skiing, sailing, and volleyball. ^[23] The college enters individual players and teams into competitions for the following sports: Golf, table tennis and trampolining.

Students' Union

The Peter Symonds College Student Union works in conjunction with Student Services to promote student interests alongside organising events for the student body, such as diversity festivals, guest speakers, charity events, concerts and end of year balls. ^[24] The SU consists of the Executive Committee (President, Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary) and other officers (Canteens and Environment, Entertainments and Charity, Communications, Equality and Diversity, Officer without Portfolio and others). The Students' Union has a history of organising and coordinating protests and demonstrations on behalf of the student body. ^[25]

The President of the SU also serves on the Board of Governors as a student governor, along with one other student governor who need not be a member of the Executive Committee. ^[24] Amongst the roles of the President is to chair the executive committee, and to organise and chair the Student Parliament.

The Students' Union officers are elected at the start of the academic year with the executive committee elected at the year's end. ^[24] Participation in the elections has been boosted in recent years through the use of an online system accessible through the student intranet, this system was introduced for the first time in the executive committee election of April 2012. ^[24] The electoral system works on a single transferable vote system, with a re-open nominations option available.

The Student Union is affiliated with the National Union of Students. ^[24] The college is entitled to send two voting delegates to the Union Conference.

Buildings

In 2004, the John Shields Building was unveiled, providing classrooms for the computing, psychology and environmental science departments. Also in that year the Varley Sports Café was rebuilt.

The £4.2M Ashurst Learning Resources Centre was completed in the spring of 2007. Ashurst contains five computer suites, housing over 170 computers (three suites double as classrooms, but remain open access when not in use), a library and silent study areas.

The Conlan building was completed in the summer of 2014, this building is used for a variety of subjects including Photography and Business. It includes a green screen which is used by photography and media students.

The Hopkins Building, named after previous principal Neil Hopkins, was previously known as the Ashurst Quad. It sits alongside the Ashurst (LRC) was opened in September 2015, creating more study space for students. The ground floor of the building is dedicated to the provision of computers and student workspaces, whilst the top floor is occupied by the Geography and Latin departments.

On 21 April 2023, the Carville building was opened which was named after previous principal Stephen Carville. The two-storey building includes 12 classrooms and primary houses the Business and Economics departments. ^{[28] [29]}

The college plans to open a new art complex to replace the current art classrooms. More than 150 local residents have backed a campaign to prevent the construction of the new building. The new complex will be open to the public, and local residents have expressed concerns of a potential safety problem due to the location of a planned new entrance to the college site. ^{[30] [31]}
