Student Positions
Prefects are chosen from the members of the Sixth Form lower sixth during the first half of the Autumn term. House Captains are chosen after selections for Head and Deputy Head Girl and Boy have been made, and this is usually done by the candidates making speeches in front of their Houses, and the House voting on the two best candidates. This is open to any lower sixth former in the designated House and not just Prefects.
Every year, two male and two female members of the upper sixth are made Head Boy, Deputy Head Boy, Head Girl and Deputy Head Girl respectively. Short-listing is done by voting on Prefects who have chosen to sign up, with staff having three votes, and each student in the lower sixth having one vote, for male and female categories. Interviews with the candidates decide the final results, with the Headmaster having the final say. The positions are usually announced during March, as to not distress students during AS Level exams.
