At William Howard staff and students are assigned to one of our four houses. Our houses – Eden, Gelt, Talkin and Vindolanda – were named by our students to reflect our local area and our link with Hadrian’s Wall.
Throughout the year, students and staff take part in a range of competitions to gain House points; and during lessons, students are awarded house points as part of our rewards system for being ‘Learner of the Lesson’ or for showing respect, responsibility and resilience. They are also awarded points for taking part in extracurricular clubs.
At the end of each term, students are given the opportunity to auction their House points for a range of prizes both individually and as a group.
