Parkstone’s Alumni
We are building up our ‘Parkstone Alumni Network’ and want to make contact and keep in touch with as many former Parkstone students as possible. We are hoping that our Alumni Network will contribute to the school supporting our current students for example through career guidance. We are hoping that your lasting memories of Parkstone will inspire our new students and give them aspirations and a connection to the wider Parkstone community.
Parkstone Alumni Bios
Be inspired by some of our former students’ Bios in our flip book below. We are so proud of their pathway and achievements. Please do create your Bio by completing our Alumni form under our ‘Join our Exclusive Database’ tab.

We will store your data for the purpose of keeping you informed of news, events, opportunities and reunions. This information will only be used by the school and will not be shared with third parties or other Alumni. Please help us keep your details up to date. If one of our Alumni wishes to arrange a reunion we can forward correspondence to other Alumni but will never provide personal details to others. You have the right under the Data Protection Act (1998) to object to the holding of your data on the system or the use of your data for any or all of the above purposes. Please contact the school if you wish to opt out of your details being held, you wish to opt out of receiving information from the school or you wish to amend the contact information we use to reach you.
If you request that your data is removed we will remove all personal data.

As a school, we are rightly proud of our former students and love to hear about the various pathways taken beyond Parkstone and what each student under our care goes on to achieve; but more valuable than this, is the opportunity for our current students to be inspired by the paths chosen and obstacles overcome by those older than them but have come from the same starting point.
We know that many of our Alumni are keen to ‘pay it forward’ and give something back to their old school community so have compiled a list of various opportunities depending on availability and interest. Please see below:
Autumn Term – University admissions interview practice
Spring term – Year 12 Future’s Day
Spring Term – Key note speakers and prize sponsorship for Senior Awards and Yr10 Mock Interviews
Summer term – Year 10 & 12 Work Experience Week
Summer Term – Year 12 Lecture Series
All year – Year 11 & Sixth Form assemblies – 20min presentations, focussed on future planning and career pathways
If you are interested in participating and supporting any of the above events, please contact us @office@parkstone.poole.sch.uk
School Fund
As you may be aware, school funding is under great pressure which means that schools are facing financial strain.
As a means of support, we operate a School Fund that allows our school community and beyond to make valuable donations. These contributions are used wisely to provide the enriching experiences that make an education at Parkstone so special. The School Fund enables us to enhance and deepen our students’ learning experience.
To view our school leaflet outlining the School Fund, explaining how it is used and how to make donations:

Gift Aiding donations will boost it by 25p for every £1 donated – making these contributions even more valuable. To download an electronic version of the Gift Aid form, click here : School-Fund-Gift-Aid-Form-PARKSTONE-GS
