House System
Our Pastoral System
As a successful school with a large number of students and teachers, our house system makes the school feel much smaller on a day to day basis.
Each of our five houses contain at least two tutor groups from each year and has its own distinctive tie and house area. Students are rightly proud of their house’s identity and take an active role in the running of the house through a number of inter-house competitions, the House Council and charity events.
Each house is managed by a Head of House who is supported by an Assistant Head of House who does not teach. This ensures they are easily accessible for both students and parents. The houses are each based around an academic area and provide a space where the students from the house can relax at break and lunchtime.
The house system is organised to make sure that every student’s happiness, personal and academic growth are closely monitored and impacted in a positive way.
