School Houses

Our House system plays a key part in Drayton Manor’s culture and ethos. It establishes opportunities for engagement in extra-curricular activities, working with charities and providing leadership opportunities for students of all ages. It also enables us to teach students the values of Ambition, Character and Civic Virtue. 
A new programme of events and activities is published every half term which includes sports competitions, debates, baking, art and many others. The House system also ties into the school calendar and provides activities relating to certain weeks, such as ‘resilience week’. 
Each House has a set of House Captains made up of students who display the school’s values in everything they do. These students are responsible for the promotion of the House system and design and organise whole school events. House Captains decide on a local charity that the House will support with the aim of students ‘knowing’ the charity and having a meaningful impact on fundraising and raising awareness. 
The end of each term sees a whole school celebration where a number of factors will decide on the awarding of the House cup. These include results from competitions, House attendance, and the students’ rewards record.

THE POWER TO SUPPORT OTHERS
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged.

It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
