Student Leadership
"If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader."
John Quincy Adams
Developing leadership skills as a student at Kings Langley School and Sixth Form is incredibly valuable for your personal growth and future success. Leadership skills help you become more confident, responsible, and effective in working with others. By taking on leadership roles in school clubs, sports teams, or class projects, you learn how to motivate and guide your peers, solve problems creatively, and make important decisions. These experiences not only make you a better student but also prepare you for future challenges in higher education and your career.
Kings Langley School offers various opportunities for you to practice and refine these skills in a supportive environment. Whether it's through participating in student council, leading a group project, or captaining a sports team, each opportunity allows you to develop essential skills such as communication, teamwork, and critical thinking. These skills are highly valued by universities and employers, setting you apart from others.
Moreover, leadership experiences help you build resilience and adaptability, qualities that are crucial in today’s fast-changing world. Embracing these opportunities can help you stand out, showing that you are capable, driven, and ready to lead. Start developing your leadership skills today and watch how they positively impact every aspect of your life, from your academic performance to your personal relationships and future career prospects.
We have developed our leadership award model using the Kouzes and Posner ‘exemplary leadership model’ (2003). We have identified a range of activities which enables young people to discover, develop and grow their leadership potential. We hope that students find this passport useful in developing their leadership skills and look forward to seeing what they can achieve.
