Student Leadership

2018 - 19

Developing strong leadership skills in our young people is a key focus for the academy. Whether it’s being selected as Head Girl and Boy or serving as senior prefects or as a member of the academy Student Council – student voice matters to us!

It’s important to us for our students to participate fully in shaping our school community. Our student leadership structure allows our students to have a real say on issues that affect them as well as coming up with solutions to improve how our academy is run. Every tutor group in every year has an elected representative on the School Council, and this group meets half-termly. Fundraising was on this half term's agenda, and the main focus for next half term will be improving our environment.

In Year 11 we also have a Student Leadership Group, consisting of our Head Boy and Girl, Senior Prefects and Prefects. This group has tremendous responsibilities which reflect their leadership qualities, including the smooth running of Open Evening, Presentation Evening and Parents' Evenings. The team are also working closely with Beaumont Primary Academy to strengthen campus links. Exciting times ahead!
