We are proud of our alumni, who will always be valued members of the BSN community. They form an incredible, diverse, international and intergenerational global network, bonded by their unique shared experience of being part of the BSN’s story.
From the moment you leave the BSN, you join our alumni. It does not matter if you were with us for just a few years or 15 years—or whether you finished your education at the BSN or not. All former staff and students are included. Thousands of meaningful alumni friendships have developed since the BSN began educating students in 1931.
We believe older alumni have much to offer younger alumni and current Sixth Form Students in terms of (career) advice and experience. We believe the reverse is also true, and our younger alumni can offer fresh perspectives and ideas to the older alumni. We are committed to building stronger ties with and among our alumni, strengthening the BSN community for the benefit of all its members.
We want to stay in touch with you and hear how your story continues after the BSN…
STAY IN TOUCH
We have created a new secure online space—the BSN Alumni Community Network—to facilitate communications, connections, and so much more…
Our new exclusive alumni network enables you to:
- Reconnect with your former classmates and teachers/students and colleagues
- Build/expand your professional network and develop your career
- Read alumni interviews and BSN news
- Sign up for reunions and other engaging events
- View photos and videos from the archives and the present
- Ask the community for support
- Share your own photos/stories/job opportunities
This platform is also open to current members of staff, BSN parents—past and present—and current Year 12 and 13 students.
Join the BSN Alumni Community Network.
WE WOULD LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU!
If you have any questions or want to share your #MyBSN story, please contact: [email protected]
We are interested in everything and anything; whatever you would like to share with us about your time at the BSN and your experiences since leaving.
Giving Back to the BSN
