Welcome to Quinton House School

Are you considering your Sixth Form options?

Our Year 11 students took part in their Sixth Form taster day recently, following an example timetable of what they would experience as their journey with us continues into Year 12.

In addition to their options lessons, they also had the opportunity to discover more about life beyond their education with us in the form of degree apprenticeships as well as hearing from Alumni students at the evening presentation. We hope all of the students found the event insightful and gained focus onto life beyond their GCSE’s.

If you would like to find out more about places within our Sixth Form from September, there is still time. Call our Admissions team on 01604 684828 to discuss a convenient time for you to visit the school and meet with our Headmaster and Director of Sixth Form.

Half term can be a time for catching up on those all important appointments, but Year 1 were ahead of the game with the help of @44derngate.

“Year 1 had a great time visiting the dentist at The Private Dental Centre in Northampton.

The children learnt many things, including the significance & importance of oral hygiene, brushing technique & good oral hygiene habits as well as the role of diet & importance of being aware sugar content

The children had a go at brushing some rather large teeth with very big toothbrushes. We were all very shocked at the amount of sugar in some of the products we eat and drink.

The highlight of the trip was to have a go in the dentist chair and feel the ‘hoover’ on our hands.”

Mrs Pearson, Year 1 teacher.

Thank you so much to the team at The Private Dental Centre for welcoming us so warmly.

🏑 ISA Midlands Hockey Tournament Highlights!

A huge well done to our U15 and U13 hockey teams who represented Quinton House at the recent ISA Midlands Tournament! 💪

Our U13s showed fantastic progress, qualifying for the third place play-off, while our U15s faced some tough opposition but displayed brilliant determination and teamwork throughout.

A great day of competition, spirit and sportsmanship — and valuable preparation for our next tournament! 🙌💚

🪔 Celebrating Diwali with Samika S, Yr12 🪔

“Last week, I had the opportunity to lead a Diwali assembly for the Prep School, and it was such a special and meaningful experience!

I wanted to share not just the story behind Diwali, that celebrates the victory of light over darkness and good over evil, but also the beautiful traditions that make it so joyful!

I spoke about how families decorate their homes with colorful lights and diyas, wear bright outfits, enjoy fireworks, and share delicious sweets like Kaju Katli and Gulab Jamun!

Seeing the Prep schoolers’ curiosity and wonder was so heartwarming! Their smiles reminded me why I wanted to do this; to show that Diwali isn’t just a festival, but a celebration of community, kindness, and hope, and about new beginnings and finding light even in dark times. Sharing it with them felt really special, and I hope it helped everyone appreciate the beauty of different cultures and the joy that comes from celebrating them together!

I hope everyone has a restful half term and wish everybody a Happy Diwali!”
