Thanks to the support of Old Salopian David Chance (O 1970-75) and the hard work and expertise of Film Fellow David Clifford and Kate Hodge from the Salopian Club, we have been able to create a library of filmed interviews with former pupils of the School across a wide range of careers.
Each of the films focuses on their ‘journey’ from Shrewsbury School to workplace and provides fascinating insights into the work they do, the skills that are required in their career, and how their Salopian experience has influenced the paths they have taken.
Pupils can access the films via the School's intranet system, and we will be constantly adding to the bank of resources. At present, it includes interviews with the following former pupils:
Philip Russmeyer (Ch 1995-97) | Private Equity |
James Russell (PH 1990-95) | Dentistry |
Charlotte Finlay (MSH 2008-10) | Law |
Nick Owen (R 1961-66) | Media |
Mark Connor QC (PH 1982-87) | Criminal Law |
Adam Booth (PH 1990-95) | Medicine (General Practice) |
Elle Gurden (MSH 2008-10) | Investment Banking |
Henry Exham (R 1997-2002) | Teaching |
Graham Moss (R 1969-73) | Architecture |
