S2:E7 - Welcome back to Whitgift Conversations. This is the podcast where we talk to staff, parents and pupils about topics that are relevant to you. Now you might be interested in the history of the school, maybe you’re not, but either way I think you’ll be interested in this episode.

I’m talking to Bill Wood, he’s the archivist for Whitgift School and the John Whitgift Foundation. You might be wondering what an archivist is and what they do; well, Bill’s about to explain all that and whole lot more too. I love this episode for two reasons. Firstly you can tell that Bill loves the work that he does, he’s deeply passionate about all things historic in the organisation. But Bill also has a velvet smooth voice and it’s just one of those voices you can listen to and kind of feel instantly relaxed.

But enough from me, instead let’s jump into some Whitgift history as we speak to the amazing archivist, it’s Bill Wood.
