History

In 2009 the BBC reported that Bohunt students had achieved higher than the national average at GCSEs in four years.[3] and had ranked mid-table in Hampshire on the proportion of pupils achieving the Level 2 threshold .[4]

Bohunt was designated a Language College, which means that it specialises in modern foreign languages and all pupils take at least one GCSE. Bohunt offers Spanish, German, French, Japanese and Mandarin. In 2005 Bohunt was credited with an International School Award.[5]

Previously a foundation school administered by Hampshire County Council, in April 2011 Bohunt School converted to academy status. The school is now sponsored by the Bohunt Education Trust.

In 2014 Bohunt School was awarded TES Overall School and Secondary School of the Year at the TES Awards.[6]

Catchment

Bohunt's main intake comes mostly from four schools known as the 4-16 Partnership. These are Liss Junior School, Liphook Church of England (controlled) Junior School, Greatham Primary School and Grayshott Primary School. Bohunt also draws from other primaries in Hampshire, Surrey, and Sussex.

Houses

The pupils are split up into a house system, consisting of six houses, each taking the name of an important person. These are:
