The purpose of the House system is to encourage pupils to take on an active role within the school and to take pride in their House. Through the House system we hope to build a sense of community as well as encouraging pupils to work for their House in a competitive manner.
If you have more than one child, it is our policy for family members to be in the same house.
Our Houses are named after people who and places which have had a significant contribution to Scarisbrick Hall School history, the Houses are:
| OXLEY HOUSE in recognition of the Oxley family, Charles Oxley founded Scarisbrick Hall School in 1963. | RAYNOR HOUSE in recognition of the work Mr David Raynor did as Head of the original Scarisbrick Hall School he retired in 1998. | |

The House System involves house points, in the form of merits and each individual pupil is encouraged to collect these to support their house. Merits are awarded for effort and achievement, community service and extra curricular involvement within the school.Being a member of a house is about being part of a team, so each an every member of this school, pupils and staff are part of a team. Every member of a team is important. Each person brings unique skills, knowledge, and experience. People also bring energy, drive, passion, and determination. Since not everyone brings different amounts of all of these things, team members need each other.
The school holds many sporting and music inter-house competitions every year.
