The House System

At The Hyndburn Academy, we believe in fostering a sense of belonging, unity, and healthy competition among our students. Our house system provides a platform for students to engage in various activities, showcase their talents, and build lifelong friendships. 

Upon joining our school, each student becomes a member of one of our unique houses, each named after a key figure from history who has overcome adversity: Curie, Jackson, Mandela House, and Turing. These houses serve as more than just teams; they are families within our larger school community. 

Throughout the academic year, students participate in a wide range of inter-house competitions, from sports tournaments to academic quizzes, performing arts showcases to community service projects. These events not only encourage teamwork and leadership but also celebrate the diverse talents and interests of our students. 

Our house system goes beyond competition; it instils values of collaboration, sportsmanship, and personal growth. It provides opportunities for students to develop essential life skills and contribute positively to our school culture. 

Join us in embracing the spirit of unity, pride, and excellence embodied by our school's house system, inspired by remarkable individuals who have made enduring impacts on history. 

Each house has a 'Head of House'. Their role is to:

  • Lead their house, including assemblies to inform you on progress, upcoming events and competitions
  • Arranges regular meetings with the House Team members to plan and prepare for upcoming events 
  • Support and encourage your house to do the best they can and win!
  • Celebrates achievements within the house 
  • Monitors house progress
  • Monitors and enhances the personal development of all our students

Current house points can be viewed on the homepage of our website.
