"I believe that students should be allowed a say in governance of the school if we are to continue to improve. I ran my campaign on the promise that I would make the students voice be heard. I hope that by doing this I will be able to make the school a positive place for everyone."

"Improvement is achieved every single day in our school, I ran my campaign to make sure that the students in our school came first and to also make sure they were heard. I hope by believing in each and every student our school will continue to be a successful and positive learning environment."

The Active Play Leaders are a small group of Sixth Form students who have been put in charge of engaging younger students in sports activities during lunchtime.

"I believe that this scheme is an excellent idea as it encourages students to participate in a variety of sporting activities, including football, basketball, tennis, table tennis and netball. It also gives the Sixth Form students a chance to interact and play sport with younger students."

Active Citizenship

All Sixth Form students in Year 12 volunteer at least one period per week to assist in a variety of activities around the school. Students help in lessons, act as reading assistants to younger students, translate for parents and newly arrived EAL students.

Catering Mentors

"I am part of a group of 12 students who have been trained to work in the catering department. Our duties cover distribution and payments of lunch, serving and operating the tills. We are also involved in assisting at other school events including the annual staff Christmas dinner. This scheme has been running for three years and involves Year 12 and 13 students. The work is very interesting and involves dealing with all the students and staff."
