Since 2016 Sydney Russell School has successfully implemented the House Cup. All students and staff have been divided into five houses, Centaur, Dragon, Griffin, Pegasus and Phoenix. It is intended that in the course of any academic year there will be a series of competitions and challenges for which students and staff can win points for their house. The house that has accumulated the most points in the summer term will be awarded the House Cup. Screens around the school display the running points total.
