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 who was a house full of bowel movement,
I who was a defaced altar,
I who wanted to crawl toward God
could not move nor eat bread.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“Human beings are compelled to live within a lie, but they can be compelled to do so only because they are in fact capable of living in this way. Therefore not only does the system alienate humanity, but at the same time alienated humanity supports this system as its own involuntary masterplan, as a degenerate image of its own degeneration, as a record of people’s own failure as individuals.”
—Václav Havel (b. 1936)
