Royal Belfast Academical Institution

Founded over 200 years ago, The Royal Belfast Academical Institution (RBAI) is one of Northern Ireland’s leading grammar schools. Educating boys aged between 11 and 18 from a wide range of social and cultural backgrounds, the school is renowned for encouraging excellence and participation, ensuring that every boy is well supported so they can perform to the best of their abilities.

The Development and Alumni Relations office was launched in 2013 to engage past pupils, promote the ethos of the school and build a sustainable fundraising programme to support the development of the school. The Development and Alumni Relations Office is the hub for communications with past pupils and friends of the school. Peter Anderson, Director of Development and Alumni Relations at RBAI, shared with us the positive impact eTapestry is having on the School’s development activities.
