Student Leadership

At Eastlea Community School, we expect all our students to be leaders of their own learning and promote positive change in our school community. Student Leadership in the school, will be led by a Head Student and a Deputy Head Student. These students will have demonstrated commitment to the school community, being active participants in the academic and cultural life of the school and role models for others. These Eastlea Community School Ambassadors will meet regularly with members of the leadership team to discuss how together we achieve our vision for our school.

 Aims and objectives

The aim of the Student Leadership will be to:

  • Assist with the decision making of the school

  • Enable creativity to flourish, as the school community benefits from the wealth of experiences, ideas, skills and sense of fun that students bring
  • Prepare students for higher education and for achieving personal and professional excellence in life after formal education
  • Provide opportunities for students to develop leadership skills through a variety of projects that impact positively on learning, teaching and wellbeing for both students and staff
