accommodation
At DLD College London, all students are enrolled into a House system and allocated to one of our five Houses based on the London Underground. Through joining a House during their time at school, each student becomes part of a small community within the larger community, enabling them to make friends across the school and to develop soft skills of team work, collaboration and leadership. They earn House Points by competing in House competitions and activities which creates a great atmosphere of drive and determination within the students.
House competitions and activities take place regularly throughout the school year, run by our Housemasters and Housemistresses. These can include anything from House Football and House Table Tennis, to the Spelling Bee and House Trips.
