Year 9/10/11/6^th Form LEADERSHIP

If any learner would like to get involved with any clubs in a leadership role please see Miss Downs in the PE office or the member of staff that is leading the club you would like to help at

This is an excellent opportunity to develop leadership skills and communication and it always looks good on a CV or college/university application.

For instance: Year 8 dance club had leaders last year who taught the learners a dance over a number of weeks. This was then performed in the dance show.
