These cast bronze panels in relief used to flank the entrance to the School Hall - a very formal old space used for assembly. The memorial comprises two main First and Second World War panels and four engraved panels, listing just on 200 war dead from the college.

The school is very proud of its memorial, and its pupils, many of whom have become world famous, and the memorial is kept spotless.
