The new Sixth Form Centre has been named in memory of Richard Record, who died suddenly while a pupil in the Upper Sixth at MCS in April 1968. Richard’s brother Neil Record (OW 1971) has made a donation of more than £1 million toward the Centre and the Governors are delighted to announce the naming.

Tom Kirkwood (OW 1968) recently spoke about Richard: ‘Those of us who knew Richard are sad that the future didn’t happen for him but we are delighted that his special character is reflected in a centre that makes opportunities a reality for the young people who followed him.’

A short film featuring Neil and Tom talking about the School and about Richard has been made so that pupils, staff, parents and OWs will know a little more about the story behind the name. View the film below.

 

 

The Centre was opened on 5 February 2018 by OW Sir Tim Hunt, Nobel Laureate.

 

The Sixth Form Campaign surpassed £3 million, thanks to the generosity of parents, OWs, pupils, staff and Governors.
