Colours Awards

A core aspect of a Harrovian education is our holistic focus on pupils’ contributions beyond academic excellence. 

Colours are awarded in the areas of Art, Drama, Music, Sport, STEAM, and our Charity and Service programme. We recognise outstanding achievement, participation, and dedication, and we notice when our pupils go above and beyond what is expected. The Colours scheme is integrated into the Harrow Diploma programme, allowing pupils to collect Diploma credits for their achievements in these areas.

Half, Full, or Elite Colours are represented by a special badge, sports socks, or a tie, which recipients wear with pride. The Colours Award brochure details the criteria for recognizing our pupils’ achievements and commitment in each area.
