We are very sorry to notify you of the passing of Derek, who attended the School from 1952 until 1957.
Derek passed away on 26th of March 2026.
We are conscious that some people who knew Derek during his time at the School may not be in contact with us and we would be very grateful if you could pass on this information to those that you know.
As is usual practice, we would like to place an obituary for Derek in the 2025-26 OI Journal. If you know of any stories or memories which you can pass on to us so we can put them together for the publication we would be most grateful. Please address any contributions to me through oldipswichians@ipswich.school
