Middle House

Boarders in Years 9, 10 and 11 are members of Middle House.  These years are important both academically and also, as the girls approach adulthood, in their emotional and social development – it is a time for them to enjoy exploring their interests; following their enthusiasms, and learning to co-operate with each other as they become more independent.

Years 9 and 10 live in the main school block, with Gina Phipps their Housemistress, based in a flat at the centre of their living areas.  The girls share colourful and spacious dorms in groups of three, four or five, with the smaller rooms usually going to the older girls.  Each girl has her own cabin bed with incorporated study area and storage space. Each year group has its own Common Room for relaxation.

Year 11 live on a separate wing.  In this important final year of their GCSE courses, girls live in single or double rooms and are able to live and work more independently, helping them to learn skills that will be invaluable to them in years 12 and 13.
