House System

The House System

Aims

The House System aims to facilitate more mixing between the different year groups, increase community spirit, peer mentoring, boost the existing rewards system, encourage more students to get involved in competitions, and develop leadership opportunities for students in KS3 and KS4.

Structure

Every student who attends Belmont Community School is assigned to a house. There are 4 houses overseen by two Heads of House. Each house is led by 8 student representatives, a male and female House Captain from year 10, a male and female Vice Captain from year 9 and house leaders from year 7 and 8. Students are allocated to a house and remain in it until they leave Belmont Community School. All staff members are also assigned to a house.
House names and identity
Based on the immediate surroundings of the school, the house names and colour are:

Auckland – Green
Barnard – Red
Durham – Blue
Lumley – Yellow
