Student Leadership & Voice
Student Voice
Here at The North School we like to ensure that students have opportunities throughout the year groups to be involved in leadership roles.
From year 7, students are randomly selected to participate in student voice meetings. These happen weekly on a rotation across each year group and ask students to comment on their experiences within the school. The conversations are either focused on teaching and learning or behaviour and safety within the school. A member of the senior leadership team runs each meeting and the opportunity is provided for students to share their views and have the chance to have their voices heard.
Student Leadership
From year 7, we provide the opportunity for our students to become part of our prefect team. Our prefects play an essential role in upholding and promoting the core values of our school: community, resilience, respect, and achievement. As leaders and role models, they foster a sense of unity and support among students, ensuring a welcoming and inclusive environment for all. Prefects demonstrate resilience by tackling challenges head-on and encouraging their peers to do the same, cultivating a culture of perseverance. They embody respect, treating everyone with kindness and fairness, and set a standard of behavior for others to follow. Through their dedication and commitment, prefects strive for personal and collective achievement, inspiring others to reach their full potential and contribute positively to our school community by assisting with a range of school events.
