The School motto, Deo Dante Dedi, “God having given, I give” underpins all that happens at Charterhouse and in Lockites.

Miss Georgia Gordon-Martin

Welcome to Lockites, a boarding House where every day is an opportunity to grow, excel, and support one another! As your Head of House, I’m thrilled to welcome you to a vibrant, coeducational community built on the belief that success comes from effort, enthusiasm, and encouragement.

Our spirit is embodied in the phrase “Why not try?” This guiding principle invites everyone to step out of their comfort zone and embrace new challenges. Here, competition is spirited but not ruthless. We value grit, teamwork, and good sportsmanship over an “elbows-out” approach. In Lockites, being your best self means striving to improve, persevering through setbacks, and, most importantly, cheering on your peers as they do the same.

Our house culture emphasises kindness, mutual respect, and personal accountability. We want each 'Lockite' to feel at home, ready to build friendships that will last a lifetime while also growing in

confidence and resilience. From academics to sports, arts, and community service, there will be countless ways to discover and pursue your passions.

I encourage each of you to make Lockites your own by getting involved, sharing your talents, and supporting your fellow housemates. Together, we’ll create a warm, dynamic, and supportive environment where everyone can thrive. Welcome to the family  –  let’s make this an incredible journey!

Miss Georgia Gordon-Martin, BA

My family and I have a long connection with the School. My father, uncle, four brothers and sister all attended Charterhouse, and I am also an Old Carthusian.

I teach Politics and also coach sport extensively to boys and girls across the School, and have played county and university first team netball, as well as recently completing the London Marathon.

Prior to Charterhouse, I taught in Essex and before teaching, I worked first in social care and then in various leadership roles in the corporate hospitality sector.
