Upper School
Pupils enter the upper school in the autumn after their fourteenth birthday. A class guardian then has the care of the class for two years; pupils take GCSE examinations at the end of class 10. Teaching in the upper school aims to develop the pupils' critical faculties, personal judgment, independent thinking and social awareness.
On leaving school, pupils will confront a complex and challenging world. The central aim at Michael House is to equip them emotionally, spiritually and intellectually not only to meet the future but to play a part in shaping it.
