Structure
The school is divided into four houses (previously six), Abbey, Bruce, Carnegie and Denmark - each house with a guidance team of two teachers. Prior to 2004, each house had an Assistant Rector assigned to it however this changed when the school became more year group than house orientated and the depute rectors became Year Heads instead. Year heads no longer follow their year groups, as such the remits of the year heads are currently static.
Queen Anne has a flat-structured management system with one Rector and five Depute Rectors. Most departments have their own Principal Teacher (PT) however, in line with new Scottish Government guidelines the Curriculum Leader system has been adopted. As well as eight PTs for the guidance departments.

Famous quotes containing the word structure:
“Communism is a proposition to structure the world more reasonably, a proposition for changing the world. As such, we have to analyze it and, if we deem it reasonable, act upon it.”
—Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)
“... the structure of a page of good prose is, analyzed logically, not something frozen but the vibrating of a bridge, which changes with every step one takes on it.”
—Robert Musil (1880–1942)
“Vashtar: So it’s finished. A structure to house one man and the greatest treasure of all time.
Senta: And a structure that will last for all time.
Vashtar: Only history will tell that.
Senta: Sire, will he not be remembered?
Vashtar: Yes, he’ll be remembered. The pyramid’ll keep his memory alive. In that he built better than he knew.”
—William Faulkner (1897–1962)
