Pastoral System and Houses

Our Current House Points Totals

Correct as of Fri 10th Nov

The House system is central in promoting enrichment activities and a hotly-contested House Championship. 

The Houses actively support sporting, inter-house and charity events, as well as a variety of personal development activities including trips and end of term activities. All students will be encouraged to participate fully in the day-to-day life of their House and help contribute to the wide and varied competitions it provides.
