At Bridge Learning Campus, our school is led by our head boy and girl from Year 6, deputies from Year 5 and a team of prefects from Year 4. Each class has an ambassador who will welcome visitors into their class and discuss their learning. The school council is represented by pupils from each year group. These roles are a vital part of our primary community, of which the student voice is highly valued.
Head boys and head girls are responsible for representing the school. They also serve as a good role model for students, and share students’ ideas with the school’s leadership. They may also be expected to lead fellow prefects and deputy head boy and girls in their duties.
The head boy and the head girl should share a passion and commitment for Bridge Learning Campus. They are the link between the students, staff and governors at Bridge Learning Campus. They demonstrate positive behaviours and act as role models for all years. The head boy and head girl support the school at events (such as parents evening, helping out with productions or extra-curricular events. They contribute to the effective running of the school, as directed by any staff member. The head boy and head girl help to take responsibility as role models for younger students and help to ensure that the school is a safe and secure place for all students.
The head boy and head girl must have the ability to work productively with others, whilst using their initiative to contribute to the positive ethos of the school. They will need to be organised, responsible, enthusiastic, and a great ambassador for the school. They must maintain excellent behaviour, uniform, attendance and punctuality.
