Why Us.?
LinkedIn is an important platform for Old Cottonians and the School, as it helps in networking and building professional connections. I am happy to share that we now have full access, and the LinkedIn Bishop cotton school page is fully operational, which will make things easier and more transparent.
This will allow all members to use it and benefit from its opportunities.
LinkedIn is not only a social media platform but also a valuable space for sharing jobs, opportunities, and many other updates. It offers unique benefits, and now that we are the administrators, we can use it effectively for the School as well as for our overseas Old Cottonians community. This initiative was long overdue, and we are glad to have finally achieved it.
Thank you.
