Welcome to the Tower House Website.

Tower House, also known by some as ‘School House’, is located in the centre of the Dean Close Senior School campus and forms a boundary to both the main and Chapel quadrangles.  Its location ensures Tower is at the heart of the Dean Close community and that the House significantly contributes to the very special ethos of this unique School.

The House motto ‘Ein’ feste Burg’, translated as ‘A Mighty Fortress’, is the opening line to Martin Luther’s famous hymn. ‘Ein’ feste Burg’ thus reflects not only the physical qualities of the House with its landmark tower but also the Christian foundation of Dean Close.  Each boy will be challenged to achieve his best in all dimensions of School life and also to demonstrate the all important qualities of respect, honesty and ambition.

The Housemaster is assisted by an Assistant Housemaster, Resident Tutor, a team of Tutors and Matron. The House Staff provide an adult presence within the House throughout the day and night and ensure that the boys have an environment in which they can work, play and relax.
