House System
Each student is placed into one of our Houses. There are four Houses, Buscot, Coleshill, Hampton and Stanton, each led by a House Leader.
Students will still be in single year tutor groups which will form part of a House community. Siblings will always be kept in the same House, meaning that parents/carers senior point of contact will always be the same person – the House Leader.
A strong House system will give many opportunities for competition, but will also develop a much stronger sense of community and belonging; particularly important in the current climate. For many students the motivation of competition for a shared goal will be very powerful and celebrating success will be at the heart of our house system.
School ties reflect the House colour and each House have their own crest and motto.
Each House will have students to perform the following roles:
- House Captains (these will always be Year 11 students) and these eight students will be the Senior Captains within the school. They will work closely with the Senior Leadership Team and their House Leaders to assist in the running and management of key events and activities within the school.
- Sports Captains to support sporting events and the running of clubs (2 per House)
- Arts Captains to support events such as school music concerts and the running of clubs (2 per House)
- Peer Captains to support younger and vulnerable members of our school community
- Change Leaders to represent their peers and work alongside staff to affect change in the school
House Captains will have a special tie to identify themselves with their relevant House colours. They will all have a role to play in the day-to-day running of the school and will be provided with on-going training.
