Each house is led by a Head of House who is a member of staff, supported by a student House Captain and Vice House Captain. Within these Houses, students compete for the House Cup by gaining points awarded for effort, achievement and other general considerations. A Sports Captain is also appointed to coordinate sporting activities and inter House sporting challenges, supported by a Vice Sports Captain. There are House Assemblies each week where all year groups from Reception to Sixth Form come together. These assemblies are led by staff who are also allocated to Houses. This system leads to positive relationships and greater consideration from pupils in every year group throughout the School, and also provides a foundation for friendly competition.
Our Code of Conduct at Gosfield School underpins our school values. Encouraging all pupils to develop confidence, self-esteem, a sense of identity, enabling them to reach their full potential.
Praise Points: Pupils are awarded praise points as a reward for acts of kindness, resilience, community spirit and enterprise. We also acknowledge success in academia and extra-curricular activities and notable effort.
Praise point totals are recorded weekly and put towards the House total. The House with the most praise points win the House Merit Cup. Praise Certificates are awarded throughout the year.
