East House is The Leys only Sixth Form Boys House. We are predominantly a boarding house, so there are lots of people around. We aim to foster as informal an atmosphere as possible within a school community. Being a Sixth Form House, it is possible for us to have a philosophy unique within the school. The philosophy that we are hoping to engender is that East House members become independent and responsible for their own private study within a structured system. We are trying to bridge the gap between school and university.

There are three key things we hope you will gain from your time in East House: a committed enthusiasm for the study of your chosen AS and A2 subjects, with successful results; some life-long friendships and the acquisition of the right habits for life. On the way, we hope you enjoy yourself and have some fun.

East House has recently been fully refurbished (Summer 2006) to a very high standard and we would urge potential Boarders to view the standard of the accommodation in East.
