The 'Quartet' are chosen each year to represent the school as Head Boy and Head Girl and their deputies.

In arriving at a choice the staff first ask the school to indicate which pupils would have their support. A decision is then arrived at by the whole staff in a meeting in which their achievements and involvement in the whole school community are taken into account.

Those pupils who have represented the school in the past few years are shown below.
