What is the role of the Sixth Form Leadership Team?
The leadership team plays a key role in representing student voice. They gather feedback from their peers and share it with the staff team to help shape the sixth form experience.
They also support the wider school community by organising events for both sixth form and high school, and helping to raise money for local charities.
Developing leadership, teamwork, and organisational skills is a large part of the role, and we hope every member of the team takes something away from this experience.
