Leadership and Responsibility

The Head with Heads of School

Our Sixth Formers enjoy numerous leadership and responsibility opportunities. The Heads of School and Senior Prefects liaise with the Head and senior staff on school operations and the running of the School Council, charities, the House system, and initiatives like Eco-Schools and Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion.

School Prefects help enforce rules and assist with lunch duties. Prefects are nominated by pupils and staff, with the Heads of School and Senior Prefects selected from them through interviews.

Pupil voice is important to us. The Sixth Form Committee, which addresses issues specific to the Sixth Form, meets twice per term. Members represent their Form Groups and discuss concerns raised by students, the Head of Sixth Form, or the Head of Year.

Sixth Formers are expected to model good conduct and support younger students. Lower School Friends, a group of trained Sixth Formers, assist First and Second Year pupils, helping them adjust to school life.

Additional opportunities include leading extracurricular activities such as Young Enterprise, Model United Nations, and month-long expeditions to places like Cambodia and Borneo. Sixth Formers also offer academic support through clubs like the Biology Help Club and have opportunities to start their own clubs and societies. Details on these activities, including the Gold Duke of Edinburgh Award, are available in the Broadening Horizons section.
