Student Leaders

All students have the opportunity in Year 7 to 10 to apply to become a Student Leader. The criteria for this role is that students are to be role models within the academy, with regards to uniform, attitude and effort, attendance and punctuality, respect, and manners.

A team of 12-15 Student Leaders are appointed each academic year to provide support to our pastoral, administrative and curriculum staff; they are the academy’s ‘on the ground’ ambassadors.

Throughout the year, the student leaders will be trained as mental health ambassadors and coordinate and promote whole school and community improvement and fund raising activities.

To date the group have raised money for many charities including the Tanzania girls’ school and Smartmove. This coming year they are hoping to continue to work with local food banks, The Mayfield Trust, Overgate and Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice, Ravenscliffe School and Skill Share, amongst others.
