All pupils at Colfe’s are randomly assigned to one of four houses named after the four longest serving Headmasters in Colfe’s 354 year history. Beardwood, Bramley, Norton and Prendergast each have two House Tutors, plus two House Captains selected from the Lower VI. In addition, all new members of staff are assigned to one of the houses.
A full and varied programme of activities is organised outside the main curriculum in which the pupils participate in healthy competition by age groups.
The emphasis of the House System is on participation by as many pupils as possible, giving them the opportunity to represent a team in activities which they may otherwise not get the chance to do at school representative level.

House Music |
