Pupil Leadership

The school promotes pupil leadership successfully by offering numerous opportunities for all pupils to develop their leadership skills, including those with additional learning needs. The school’s ‘Leadership Diploma’ is a programme whereby pupils have the opportunity to participate in six areas of leadership. The diploma recognises their contributions and achievements, helping pupils build confidence to become active and capable leaders within the school and beyond. For example, the Sports Leaders organise a range of activities and clubs for younger pupils during breaktimes and lunchtimes in order to develop their confidence and social skills. In Year 11, pupils are eligible to apply for a role in the Senior Pupil Leadership Team if they have been actively involved in school life and have achieved the gold award through the ‘Leadership Diploma’ programme. The Senior Pupil Leadership Team is a key vehicle to enable pupils’ views to contribute to school improvement.
