Haydon School - Removal of House System

Removal of House System

From September 2012 onwards it was removed, Haydon School no longer has a house system in place.instead, they replaced it with a year system. This change also means that the coloured ties and conduct cards have no significance. This is why the new head teacher, Mr Jones has decided that each year group will be allocated a colour, which will move up with them until they leave the school. The new year 7's have whatever colour the previous year 11's had e.g the new year 7's have red, this colour will stay with them throughout their time in the school. The teachers decided to make this change so they could manage the students better.

They lose their way; in the assault on the kingdom of darkness, they expend all their energy on some accidental evil, and lose their sanity and power of benefit.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
