House System
At Christ College a ‘house’ system is woven into and intrinsic to boarding and day pupils’ daily school lives. One highly visible impact of the house system is the engagement it drives in an extraordinary range of academic, artistic, dramatical, musical, and sporting competitions. These competitions, spread across the academic year, help bind pupils together and each week in assembly there is a palpable excitement ahead of the updated scores being announced. Beneath these competitions, the ‘house system’ plays a vital role in the well-being support of pupils at the school. It is another valuable layer of care, which provides pupils the opportunity to develop trusting, respectful and positive relationships with house staff and house mates of all ages, in both boarding and day settings across the school.
