The Michael Downward Fund

Supporting Pupils. Honouring a Legacy. Building a Future.

Thanks to a generous legacy gift from a former pupil, over 40 West Buckland School students have received vital financial support this year. Many of these pupils were in crucial exam years, and this assistance ensured they could complete their studies with the stability and confidence they deserved.

Now, with pride and purpose, we are renaming our hardship fund in honour of one of West Buckland School’s most cherished figures – former Headmaster Michael Downward. Michael dedicated his life to the principle that no child should have to leave West Buckland School due to financial hardship. This fund reflects his unwavering belief in opportunity, equity, and the transformative power of education.

The Michael Downward Fund will now become the cornerstone of our future hardship fundraising – a lasting tribute to Michael’s values and compassion.
