Year 9/10/11/6th Form LEADERSHIP

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

  • 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.
