The school's pupils are divided into six different houses. These six are Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Paul and Peter.

The Archbishop's School is situated on St Stephens's Hill, approximately a mile North-West of the city centre. Mr M. Liddicoat is currently the Headteacher, but before him it was Mr A.
