House System

House System

At Harborne Academy, every student belongs to one of our four Houses throughout their time with us. These Houses are named after famous people associated with Birmingham, some details of which are outlined below.

Houses compete with each other throughout the year to score house points through various events, such as House quizzes and sporting events. In previous years, Houses accruing the most points have been rewarded with House parties, trips out of the Academy and a range of other rewards.
