What leadership opportunities do you offer in the Senior School?

We believe each pupil has gifts and talents that they can share with everyone, so pupils are encouraged to take on roles within the school to support and help each other.

The Head Boy and Head Girl lead a team of Prefects to act as role models across the school.

The Boarding Prefect leads a team of boarders who act as representatives and advise and assist boarders of all ages. They chair the termly Boarding Council meetings which acts as a forum for ideas and discussion about boarding life.

Peer mentors are Sixth Formers who have successfully completed a training programme to support new pupils. Mentors and mentees meet regularly to chat informally about school life and talk through any settling in issues.

Year Representatives maintain, review and enhance the quality of life for both day pupils and boarders. The ‘year reps’ play a significant role in suggesting and discussing changes, so that all years’ views and ideas are fairly represented. The year reps report School Council and Boarding Council meetings.

The International Boarding Committee acts as a forum for all international pupils, to help organise and promote world events and festivals, liaise with other international pupils in local schools and to promote the integration of all pupils.
