Student Voice is a means of involving students in the organizational structure of the school and engaging them in the school community. At Capital City Academy we aim at engaging students and involving them at the heart of our learning community.

Our student leadership groups seek to successfully develop the school's culture and ethos as well as nurture and support the integration and expansion of student voice activities.

Head Girl/Head Boy

The role of Head Girl and Head Boy will be undertaken by students in Year 12. These senior students will be ambassadors for the Academy, along with other student leaders representing the school at local and national events. They will chair the Student Council and design a Duty Rota for other student leaders.

Prefects

Prefects will be selected from Years 7-11. Prefects will support the Head Girl and Head Boy in maintaining an effective learning environment including caring for the building and resources, encouraging and developing the Culture for Learning as well as promoting mutual respect  for each other.

Year Councils

The Year Councils will be the principal forum through which the views of students can be shared. Each Learning Advisor Group will elect a girl and a boy to represent them at the Year Council. Year Councils will be chaired by the Year Team Leaders. The Year Council will elect one girl and one boy to represent them on the Student Council.

Student Council

The Student Council will be the principal forum through which the views of students can be implemented. It will consist of a boy and a girl representing each Year Group - 12. It will be chaired by the Head Girl and Head Boy.

Peer Mentors

Students in the Leadership Group will have the opportunity to act as a "Big Brother" or "Big Sister" to students entering Year 7 and those joining the Academy part way through the Academic Year. They will also act as mentors to other students throughout the year.

Student Sports Council 

The student sports council will work along side the student council and will have representatives of students from each year group who will represent the voice of their year group. They will meet as a Sports Council, chaired by the P.E. Department and be the student consultative group for the development of the PE and Sport Curriculum, Clubs and Classes and Inter house competitions.

The Sports Council will be led by an elected Year 12 girl and boy, who has represented the school or higher at sport and has an active role in performance and training.
