The development of a strong culture is a vital part of our schools. We believe that pupils need to be provided with opportunities to develop as young people, to gain a sense of community, and to experience and share success with others. One way in which we provide such opportunities is through our House System.

Here at Cobholm Primary Academy, we are extremely proud of the House System we have created and the values that are attached. It embodies all that we stand for and is the vehicle in which our culture is lived through each day. It encourages pupil development through access to a wide range of experiences and motivates students to work together to share ideas, allowing them to learn from each other. 

Each of our Houses has a House Leader and every pupil and staff member is expected to be part of a House. 

Each school within the Inspiration Trust has a House System and as part of the wider trust, we are delighted to be able to offer our students the opportunity to participate in numerous exciting inter-trust events and competitions, all of which promote and inspire teamwork, while creating a unique sense of belonging to something bigger than one's self.

Pupils collect house points throughout the week, and during the year we also run a number of ‘Cobholm Game’ events within school. At the end of the year, the house with the most points is awarded the Cobholm House Shield.

When children arrive at Cobholm Primary Academy they are placed into a house along with any siblings they may have. We currently have 4 houses:

• Barn Owls
• Swallowtails
• Hedgehogs
• Badgers

Each house has its own colour and represents one of our core values. All pupils are given PE shirts to wear in the colour of their house.
