Development

Fundraising

Educational costs are rising faster than state funding, so developments like the Wainwright Learning Centre , refurbishment of the Dining Room, science labs, Christie and Dungeon loos, and the new Science Prep Room and Data Logging Suite are only made possible by the generosity of parents and friends of the school.

Regular Giving

Now more than ever we urge you to consider a financial donation, if you have not already done so. We acknowledge that the economic climate is difficult and that we all have to prioritise expenditures. However, unless we can convince alumnae, parents, and friends of Wycombe High School to contribute, we will have to scale back our plans to improve facilities. With that in mind we hope you feel able to support us by making a regular donation to the school using the gift aid scheme which provides our largest source of income. Please use the Future Fund Gift Form to make a regular contribution. Thank you in advance for your anticipated support and to those parents and friends who are already contributing generously, we are hugely grateful.

We encourage you to read about the many projects in the left hand side menu which contribute to the School Development Fund and to contact Mrs D Morgan on 01494 523961 or dmorgan@whs.bucks.sch.uk with any questions and / or suggestions regarding our development programme.

Matched Giving

Many companies will help charities such as WHS (registered charity number 1068409) through a matched giving scheme. Some will match pound for pound, and others will even double match donations made to registered charities by its employees. If you are making a gift to WHS, please check with your Payroll or HR department whether your company operates a scheme like this as it could make your donation worth even more to us.

Please follow this link: ‘Matched Giving Companies’ to review a list of companies that we know match gifts, or have done so in the past. If your company does not appear on the list, but does match gifts made by employees, please let Mrs Morgan know at dmorgan@whs.bucks.sch.uk . Please also let us know if your company is detailed incorrectly on this list.
