Student Leadership Programme
Our Student Leadership Programme helps to provide all students with opportunities to develop and practice leadership skills that prepare them well for future success and life beyond school.
Through student voice and student action we can harness the full potential of our fabulously diverse student body and build the strongest sense of togetherness between students, staff, governors, parents/carers and our local community partners.
Student leaders across all year groups work together in action groups to drive positive change in a number of important areas. These are:
Inclusion, Diversity and Community Cohesion
Mental Health & Wellbeing
Environment & Sustainability
Charity & Fundraising
Media, Marketing & Promotions Action Group
Wider Curriculum Development
