Leadership skills
Early in the Autumn Term, we appoint our House Captains from the Year 12 intake. Many of these
students develop their leadership skills to a great extent and they are then in line for posts of
Prefect and Head or Deputy Head of School when we come to appoint them in the spring term.
Prefects have a very important role in the school, both supporting staff on every day issues and
representing the school at a wide range of events throughout the year.
The school also has a Junior Leadership Team, chaired by the Heads of School and led by
representatives from Year 12. The JLT actively represent the views of the wider student
body and report to the Senior Leadership Team. The Heads of School also attend meetings of the
Board of Governors of the school. The Deputy Heads of School chair the school9s Learning
Leadership Team which meets twice each half-term to discuss how to improve teaching and
learning throughout the school.
