The Achievement Awards recognise alumni achievements and celebrate the spirit of possibility.
We were delighted to receive an exciting range of nominations for the 2025 Awards, including authors, artists, scientists, entrepreneurs and performers alike; all recognising the impact our alumni community has in the wider world.
Learn more about our six shortlisted nominees below. Whatever their field, they reflect our All We Can Be motto and our ROCCK values of Respect, Opportunity, Courage, Curiosity and Kindness in some way.
The vote is now closed, and we look forward to announcing the names of the two 2025 winners at Celebration Day on Thursday 3 July.
The Awards were established in 2024. They provide a wonderful opportunity to celebrate our Alleyn's alumni community and the individuals within it, as well as providing inspiration for our current pupils.
After enthusiastic voting, our first Alleyn's Alumni Achievement Award winners were unveiled as animal welfare specialist Madeleine Campbell (Dutton's 1986) and social entrepreneur Ted Rosner (Spurgeon's 2006) in the Alumni Achievement and Young Alumni Achievement categories respectively.
After nominations are received for the longlist, the Awards Committee meets to review the nominations and agree a shortlist. The committee includes the Head, the Chair of Governors, the sitting President of the Edward Alleyn Club, the Chair of the Edward Alleyn Club and a representative of Alleyn's teaching staff.
Pupils and staff participated in an internal vote for the 2025 Alumni Achievement Awards shortlist and the winners of the vote will be announced at Celebration Day.
The characteristics we seek each year are referenced within the School's 'All We Can Be' manifesto.
