Archbishop Temple School - House System

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:

    [My father] was a lazy man. It was the days of independent incomes, and if you had an independent income you didn’t work. You weren’t expected to. I strongly suspect that my father would not have been particularly good at working anyway. He left our house in Torquay every morning and went to his club. He returned, in a cab, for lunch, and in the afternoon went back to the club, played whist all afternoon, and returned to the house in time to dress for dinner.
    Agatha Christie (1891–1976)

    We now come to the grand law of the system in which we are placed, as it has been developed by the experience of our race, and that, in one word, is SACRIFICE!
    Catherine E. Beecher (1800–1878)
