Student leadership model
The student leadership model applied at Bundanoon Public School is defined as a set of school core values, skills and behaviours exhibited by student leaders.
These encourage the participation as a leader, a team player and the development of leadership qualities. This is combined with the ability of a leader to be heavily involved in school life and to lead by example.
The model aims to:
- Encourage learning amongst all students about the characteristics and behaviours of successful leaders, as well as developing an understanding of the role of team members and community members
- Provide opportunities to develop an understanding of the values, skills and behaviours required for leadership
- Broaden the base of student leadership by providing opportunities for all students to develop and demonstrate leadership values, skills and behaviours in a variety of contexts
- Acknowledge and reward those students who take on leadership roles
- Promote a culture of active team membership and good citizenship.
The procedures and processes followed in our student leader program are outlined in our Student Leadership Procedures Document.
