Members of Cooper's House wear a black and white tie with a blue stripe. 

 

The house is named after Frederick Cooper, a generous benefactor.  In 1872, he bequeathed land to the School, the proceeds of which were used to offer scholarships to some pupils.

 

Each member of the house is allotted to one of the nine tutors.  Each tutor has an assistant. A tutor is responsible for a boy's pastoral care throughout his entire school career.  A tutor will guide his tutees through important decisions, such as option choices and university application; be on hand to help with any problems or difficulties that he may encounter in any aspect of school life; act as a point of contact between tutees' parents and School; and, generally, keep a watchful eye on his progress and development during the time he is at Nottingham High School - and often beyond.

 

Cooper's House has an excellent record in inter-house competitions. We won back the Wheeler Cup last year after just one unsuccessful year in seven.  We are very keen to keep our hands on the trophy this year.

 

We also have a strong tradition of raising funds for charity: last year we collected £3200 for the Nottingham branch of the Multiple Sclerosis Society.
