At Streatham & Clapham High School, we recognise that a girl’s physical and emotional well-being is closely linked to her academic success. Our House system reflects our commitment to supporting both pupils and parents. Upon joining, each girl is assigned to one of five Houses: Carter, Fawcett, Franklin, Knights or Paston Brown. The Head of House plays a key role in guiding and knowing each girl, building strong relationships with both pupils and parents. House points are awarded for kindness, academic excellence, and participation in events, with House Captains providing leadership opportunities and fostering cross-year friendships.
