Pupil Leadership
At Lamberhead Green our aim is to support, inspire and prepare our pupils to be their BEST. With this in mind, we believe in creating a pupil leadership culture where children can take on key leadership roles in school. This provides them with an opportunity to be heard and to make a positive contribution to the life of the school and beyond.
There are many leadership opportunities available for pupils to participate in. Some of these roles are elected by peers, some of these roles require pupils to apply for the role and some roles are only available to pupils who have met the training requirements for the role.
Our school values motivate and guide us in everything we do. Our school values are:
respect, resilience, acceptance and tolerance, love and happiness
These values motivate our actions and serve as guiding principles for ourselves and for others. In all aspects of pupil leadership, demonstration of our school values in action is expected.
Leadership Roles in School: Celebration Leaders, Play Leaders, Sports Champions, Reading Ambassadors, Inclusion Champions, Eco-Team, School Council, Times Tables Champions, Digi-Leaders
School Council
Our Y4 - Y6 School Councillors represent pupil voice on behalf of every class from Reception to Y6. Each class votes for their representative at the start of the school year through a democratic process and the School Council meets at least once per month. Councillors bring ideas for school improvement to the meetings for discussion and if appropriate action is taken.
Celebration Leaders
Our Celebration Leaders have a multi-faceted role! They make sure the hall is set up and ready prior to the Celebration Assembly. They make sure certificates are ready and award the Headteacher sticker to children receiving an award. They lead by example from a prominent position in the assembly and make sure the hall is ready for the next activity once the assembly is over.
Eco-Team
Our Eco-Team consists of two appointed representatives from every KS2 year band. We meet every week to discuss ideas on how to make school more eco-friendly and increase biodiversity in the school grounds. Our passion for helping the environment extends outside the school as we also like to help our local and wider community. We have organised beach cleans, attended climate summits and taken part in national campaigns to help reduce the negative impact we have on our planet.
Inclusion Champions
Our Inclusion Champions have completed the six weeks ‘Happy Smiles’ Training. They have been introduced to a wide range of skills and are guided to use their experiences to positively influence their peers. Work has included building their confidence, skills and understanding around effective inclusion for all.
The Inclusion Champion mission is 'To include everyone no matter their differences by making sure they are happy, have avoice and opportunities in school'.
Play Leaders
To be appointed as a Play Leader at Lamberhead Green, pupils must first apply for and undertake training with our Pastoral Lead, Mrs Harrison. Pupils must pass the training in order to be selected for the role. Once appointed, Play Leaders have a responsible job helping to make sure lunchtimes are calm and enjoyable. They help children to find friends to play with and teach younger children games and support where needed.
Digi Leaders
Our Digi-Leaders are our in-school technology experts! With a love for their Computing lessons or an interest in how technology works, our Digi-Leaders are trained to give help and support in lessons where children need help when using an iPad, give support to both children and staff on new pieces of technology and plan opportunities for other children to share their love of technology too. The Digi-Leaders also have a real focus on promoting online safety across school including giving advice, creating charters for all children to follow and promoting Safer Internet Day in February!
