The Stonyhurst Diploma

The Stonyhurst diploma recognises the contribution of pupils to the other half of a Stonyhurst education. The award has three levels: Bronze, Silver and Gold.

In Lower Grammar, all pupils should achieve a Bronze Award, contributing as a Playroom community to shared endeavours across the four strands of the co-curriculum. They will complete the LG Expedition, the Faith In Action Bronze Award, take part in the LG Play and commit to representing the College in sport.

In Grammar and Syntax, pupils must choose to continue this all-round commitment to secure a Silver Award. Over their GCSE years, they must ensure they engage with activities in each of the four strands.

In Higher Line pupils must take on the mantle of leaders, ensuring traditions are maintained, strengthened and passed on to the next generation of Stonyhurst pupils. The Gold Award recognises those who take up that challenge. Through the Stonyhurst Diploma, those who go above and beyond and contribute meaningfully to the traditions that make us who we are, are recognised by their teachers.
