Student Leadership

Student Leadership at Chertsey High School

Leadership is the challenge to be something more than average.

Student leadership at CHS consists of students working in teams on a number of projects across the school linked to the 5 Pillars of the School Development plan.

The five Student Leaders are nominated by senior leaders and work closely with the Headteacher or one of the Assistant Headteachers on their Pillar. For the academic year 2019-2022, they are:

	Mrs Z. Munnik & N. Cruceru Leadership – “Successfully ensure that the highly aspirational principles upon which the school was founded upon are put into practice”.
	Mrs L. Goulborn Learning – “Pupils consistently achieve highly, particularly the most disadvantaged. Pupils with SEND achieve the best possible outcomes”.
	Miss S. Brazier S. McLellan & M. McKeown Character – “Consistently goes ‘the extra mile’ to promote the personal development of pupils, so that they have access to a rich set of experiences.”
	Ms S. Lalli J. Harris & M. Pink Wellbeing – “Pupils consistently have highly positive attitudes and commitment to their education. They are persistent in the face of difficulties.”
	Mr C. Howell & M. Filali-Gomez Community – “Engage parents and our community thoughtfully and positively in a way that supports pupils’ education”.

Our Wellbeing group is focussed on supporting the mental and physical health of all our students, and following regular and comprehensive surveying of all our students, on implementing our Wellbeing Action Plan.

Our House Captains work closely with the Head of PE / Ethos to develop our charity work and lead on House-based competition.

Our LGBTQ+ Ally group is collaborating with other BET Trust schools to develop as a Pride Youth group with the aim of ensuring that our school culture treats all our students equitably and in a respectful manner.

Working in teams helps students develop skills in resilience, planning, organisation, coordination, problem solving and enterprise. The success of our SLT teams is reflected in the competitive numbers applying to be student leaders.
