At the heart of our school lies a vibrant and inclusive House System that plays a vital role in shaping the ethos of our community.

​

Every pupil and colleague belongs to a House and is encouraged to take part in a wide range of activities and competitions throughout the year. These opportunities are designed to be fully inclusive, ensuring that every pupil can contribute, feel valued, and earn house points for their team. Whether through academic challenge, artistic expression, sport, service, or leadership, there is something for everyone.

Our House Captains, members of the Year 11 Senior Council Team, play a key role in leading and inspiring their peers. They help create a sense of belonging, celebrate achievement, and encourage participation across all year groups.

Engaging, enjoyable, and rooted in building character, our House System strengthens the sense of community within our school. It empowers pupils to support one another, celebrate their strengths, and grow as confident, compassionate learners.

Embodying our values

The House System is one of the ways that pupils can demonstrate their understanding of the School’s core values.

Creativity allows pupils to think independently, explore new ideas, and solve problems in imaginative ways. It enriches their learning experience and helps them express themselves confidently, whether through the arts, writing, design, or inventive thinking in lessons.

​

Character is the foundation of responsible, considerate, and resilient young people. It includes traits such as self-discipline, kindness, courage, and respect. Pupils with strong character are able to make good choices, manage challenges, and contribute positively to the school community.

​

Integrity helps pupils become trustworthy and responsible individuals. When young people learn to act honestly and make good choices they build a strong moral foundation.

​

Empathy teaches them to understand and respect the feelings and experiences of others, creating a kinder and more supportive school community.

​

Endeavour encourages pupils to persevere, stay motivated, and keep trying even when things are difficult.

Excellence isn’t about being perfect, it’s about putting in consistent effort, taking pride in work, and continually improving.
