Granta House

Girls’ Sixth Form Boarding House

Granta is a Sixth Form Girls’ House with 28 girls, most of whom are full boarders.

  • Housemistress: Ms Jo Clifton
  • Assistant Housemistress: Ms Gabi Williams
  • Matron: Miss Sylwia Sloma

Granta House is a warm and welcoming Sixth Form boarding community, where strong, collaborative relationships are at the heart of daily life. We foster a genuine sense of belonging, ensuring every individual feels heard, valued and supported.

Rooted in empathy and kindness, curiosity and ambition are actively encouraged as foundations for pupil success. By embracing challenge as a vital pathway to growth, we celebrate progress and take pride in achievements along the way.

Through nurturing self-awareness, we empower pupils to prioritise self-care and develop the resilience and skills needed to navigate the rigours of life beyond Granta House, approaching the next steps of their journey with confidence, pride and purpose.

The fact that most girls join us in the Lower Sixth reinforces the strong bonds within the house. There is a real sense of 'being in the same boat' in terms of joining later, which encourages girls to get involved. The light-hearted, fun and close knit atmosphere within the house is one of Granta's defining attributes and I'm proud to be a Granta girl.
