Leadership Conference

Students who applied for a leadership role and were successful, started their day collecting their lanyard and goody bag before joining the other Young Leaders in the hall. Mr. Cullinan spoke about being a ‘Champion of Change’ and shared our new school vision before Mrs. Heptinstall-Lowe got the students thinking about qualities of a good leader. 

Students then split off into the following workshops: Language Leaders, Student Ambassadors, Reading Leaders, Times Tables Champions, Sports Leaders, Playground Leaders, BISAD Diploma Ambassadors and Eco Warriors. Each workshop was led by teachers who lead in these areas within school alongside dedicated IB students.  

Our Young Leaders then listened to Mr. Harper talking about his personal experience as a leader, drawing upon leaders who had inspired him before having the opportunity to reflect on the day, sharing their new knowledge and skills with those from different workshops. Students added to their BISAD Diplomas before being proudly presented with a certificate from Mr. Lowe and Mr. Cocker. 

These students are now involved in BISAD’s Young Leaders Programme and will be carrying out their leadership roles next term. We look forward to seeing these Change Makers in action!
