House System
On the 3rd September 2007, the school abandoned the form system, whereby each year had the forms: T, E, M, P and L. The change reverts back to the old house system, where the school is split into four houses (York, Durham, Winchester and Canterbury) and each house is split into seven forms (P, R, E, S, T, O and N) containing an equal number of pupils from each year within the house, as opposed to the previous forms containing pupils solely from one year. Each house has its own head. For York it is Miss Donna Keller, Durham has Mr Mick Carter (Previously in Canterbury, Then York), Winchester's head is Mr Alistair Gray and Canterbury's head is Miss Louise Walsh.

Famous quotes containing the words house and/or system:
“I dwell in a lonely house I know
That vanished many a summer ago....”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“Such is the remorseless progression of human society, shedding lives and souls as it goes on its way. It is an ocean into which men sink who have been cast out by the law and consigned, with help most cruelly withheld, to moral death. The sea is the pitiless social darkness into which the penal system casts those it has condemned, an unfathomable waste of misery. The human soul, lost in those depths, may become a corpse. Who shall revive it?”
—Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
