Student Leadership at Theale Green School

Opportunities are advertised throughout the academic year and each leadership opportunity has its own job description, vision, aims and application process.

Student Ambassadors (years 7 – 9) best represent the values and attributes of Theale Green School.  These students support at public facing events including Open Evening and Open Mornings.  Additionally there will be other elements where we are asking for your feedback and views to improve life at TGS.

Student Prefects (years 10 – 11) represent the values and attributes of Theale Green School and act as role models to younger students.  These students work with their Head of Year to help shape their GCSE experience according to the needs of the year group.  This group mentor younger students and are easily identifiable through the prestigious Theale Green School purple tie.

Head Team (years 12 & 13) represent the views of the student body.  They work closely with the Head of Sixth Form to organise charity events and other important aspects of the sixth form experience.  The Head Team represent the sixth form with our younger students, building high aspirations for the future.

House Captains support their Heads of House in ensuring students are actively involved in House activities.  From baking to singing or running, there are a multitude of ways to show support for your House, and build up the House Points across the year to see who will win the prestigious Governor’s Cup!

“Leadership is taking responsibility in a particular area. It involves teamwork, consultation, discussion and democracy. It will need resilience as one seeks to effect change over time. Leadership always respects others and is inclusive of different groups and a variety of opinions. It includes service, honesty and a desire to solve problems and to improve the educational institution. It will include communication, preparation, consultation and decision making for the good of the whole learning community.

We believe that all students should be leaders, in some capacity, in that they consult and take decisions in various areas inside and outside the curriculum. Good leaders foster democracy and collaboration by building trust and facilitating relationships. We seek student leaders who embrace all genuine contributions and celebrate hard work and success.”
