Camborne Science and International Academy - Student Leadership

Student Leadership

The school operates two separate Student Leadership Team systems, one for the VIth Form exclusively (The VIth Form Committee), and a Student Voice, representing the school as a whole. The two work together in many aspects of their duties that crossover between the Sixth Form and main school.

The VIth Form committee is led by a team of four students, all of which gain membership of the 'Student Voice'.

The 'Student Voice' is led by the student body, with an elected Chairperson, Vice Chairperson, Secretary and Treasurer.

Each Form Group elects two representatives, one of each gender. They then represent their form on a Year Council. Each Year Council in turn votes in two representatives for the Whole School Council, or the 'Student Voice'.

Full councils meet on a fortnightly basis and discuss a range of subjects from the uniform to use of the school budget. They also hold representation on various local bodies such as the Cornwall Youth Forum and the CPR Regeneration Forum. To date two students have been members of the United Kingdom Youth Parliament, representing the West Cornwall constituency.

Famous quotes containing the words student and/or leadership:

    What is the student but a lover courting a fickle mistress who ever eludes his grasp?
    Sir William Osler (1849–1919)

    The liberal wing of the feminist movement may have improved the lives of its middle- and upper-class constituency—indeed, 1992 was the Year of the White Middle Class Woman—but since the leadership of this faction of the feminist movement has singled out black men as the meta-enemy of women, these women represent one of the most serious threats to black male well-being since the Klan.
    Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
