Pupil Leadership Teams
At Limes Farm Junior School we are great believers in growing and developing our children to become great leaders. In order to do this, they must have the opportunity to learn, practise and develop their leadership skills therefore, allowing them to fulfil our school vision and be the best that they can be. This year there are several exciting opportunities available for our children to do just this.
Below is a table of student leadership roles (our Pupil Parliament) that children are able to apply for. We encourage children to read through the job descriptions below, with their parents, and decide if there is any role that they would like to commit to for the year ahead. It is important to note that each role requires training and a high level of commitment throughout the year rain or shine.
We hope to develop leaders who:
- Can live out our school values every day
- Are kind, fair and organised
- Keep an open mind and consider the ideas of others as well as their own
- Learn from mistakes and use them to develop themselves further
- Understand the needs of others and are inclusive of all
- Seek knowledge
- Can collaborate and communicate well with others to achieve shared goals
