Pupil Leadership


Our pupil leadership opportunities empower children to play an active role in shaping school life while developing valuable life skills. Through groups including the School Council, Head Pupils, House Captains, Wellbeing Ambassadors and Eco-Warriors, pupils represent their peers and lead positive change. Leadership roles in the arts, sport and academics — such as Arts Council, Sports Leaders, Class Champions and Pupil Librarians — further enrich our school community. Together, these roles promote responsibility, teamwork and a strong pupil voice across the school.
