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:
“Ladies and gents. The time has passed. The time has passed. Got to be a better way. I say to you, can’t any longer, oh no, can’t any longer, play off black against old, young against poor.
This country cannot house its houseless. Feed its foodless. They’re demanding a government of the people. Peopled by people. Our faith. Our compassion. Our courage on the gridiron. The basic
indifference that made this country great.”
—Jeremy Larner, U.S. screenwriter, and Michael Ritchie. Bill McKay (Robert Redford)
“For the universe has three children, born at one time, which reappear, under different names, in every system of thought, whether they be called cause, operation, and effect; or, more poetically, Jove, Pluto, Neptune; or, theologically, the Father, the Spirit, and the Son; but which we will call here, the Knower, the Doer, and the Sayer. These stand respectively for the love of truth, for the love of good, and for the love of beauty.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
