Several schools have a House system underpinning their pastoral care. Relationships within the House are strengthened through regular House assemblies and internal competitions which also provide an opportunity for friendly rivalry between the Houses.
The Academy’s House system is named after the lighthouses standing at various points along the south coast, providing illumination, aide navigation and safe harbour for mariners and wayfarers. At The Bourne Academy we aspire to do likewise for all our students. The Academy seeks to broaden the horizons of all its students. From the moment a child enters the Academy’s Pastoral Team offer care and support which helps students’ confidence to grow. This creates the platform on which academic success can be built.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
