Garth Hill College
Welcome to Garth Hill College
Garth Hill College serves the community of North Bracknell and surrounding areas for pupils aged 11-19. Success has been built upon high standards and expectations. We expect pupils to take responsibility, to work as hard as staff, always try their best, and to reflect upon, and learn from failure and success. We also expect our young people to demonstrate good behaviour, self-discipline and respect. We praise and reward good citizenship, but there are clearly understood sanctions for unacceptable conduct. Garth Hill is a happy and vibrant place of learning.

Pastoral Care
The College’s pastoral structure is organised as a house system. Each of the four main ‘schools’ is also home to one of the College’s four houses. There are four houses: Lawrence, Fielden, Brownlow and Haversham. Each house is made up of two or three tutor groups from each curriculum year, typically 11-12 tutor groups in total.

During National Careers Week, students were inspired by a fantastic talk from Stacy Bazeley-White (Heathrow), who highlighted the huge range of careers available in aviation From engineering to hospitality, it was eye-opening to see how different passions can come together—even combining interests like cooking and planes! ✈️
The session encouraged students to unlock their potential, embrace a growth mindset, and believe in the “power of yet.”
We also made the most of the sunshine with hands-on drone flying, while learning about new licensing requirements, and continued building our impressive 1:400 scale model airport using CAD, laser cutters, and 3D printing.
With support from our Sixth Form students and an exciting programme of guest speakers and trips ahead, it’s a great time to get involved in Aviation Club! ✈️ 20 Likes
Led by Dale Willis (My Great First Job), the session covered CV writing, interview skills, and using LinkedIn to find opportunities—including degree apprenticeships.
Students from seven WCSA schools took part, gaining valuable insights and practical advice, with many leaving feeling more confident and prepared for their next steps.
Sarah Dethick, Careers Co-ordinator and Sixth Form Learning Mentor, said:
“We cannot thank Wellington College enough for organising this fantastic event with Dale Willis from My Great First Job. It was incredibly beneficial for our students and those from across the partnership. Sessions like this play a vital role in supporting young people as they develop their CVs, prepare for interviews, and build their professional profiles for life beyond sixth form.”
A fantastic event and opportunity for all involved! 👍 8 Likes
