Overton Grange House System
The Overton Grange House system consists of four Houses: Amber, Emerald, Ruby and Sapphire. Each House has a Head of House and a Year 12 House Captain, and the system is overseen by the House Coordinator. In Years 7 to 11, and in Sixth Form, there are two tutor groups in each House. On joining the school, students are given a House stripe for their blazer.
The House system is designed to offer all students the opportunity to participate in a wide range of extra-curricular activities and to earn points for their House. House points are awarded for participation as well as winners of events, as well as for attendance, use of GCSEPod and Unifrog, and Satchel:one rewards are also included. Each year, a variety of cups are awarded at the end of the year including Sports Day, Attendance, Charity and the prestigious House Cup.
Our House charity this year is the Diamon Riding Centre.
Forthcoming events
