On Monday 29th November, we held our first Student Leadership Conference for the relaunch of Student Voice.

During registration the School Council Representatives for each year group met with their Assistant Head of Year to discuss different aspects of school life. Meanwhile, the House Captains met with their Head of House to discuss different aspects of the school community and the house system.

The Prefects and Sixth Form Ambassadors were also in attendance, taking minutes and supporting staff.

After these initial meetings, overall representatives for the whole School Council and Community House Council met up at the Student Leadership Conference in Primmer Assembly Hall.

The conference was chaired by Mrs Draper and students were invited to discuss the points raised in their earlier meetings and share these with the conference. Students raised some excellent points that were then taken to the school Governors meeting to be discussed further. The prefects met with the Governors and described their experience of the conference and shared some of the key points that had arisen. These points will now be reviewed further by the Senior Leadership Team to see what actions can be taken as a result.

Students will hear feedback on this over the coming weeks in assemblies and via messages on the plasma screens around the school. Our next Student Leadership Conference will take place next half term to continue the process.

We would like to thank all of the students who took part and presented their ideas so effectively and look forward to hearing their views again next term.
