Student Leadership Development Plan

The development of our Student Leaders is based on The Student Leadership Challenge, The Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership- MICEE model by Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner which comprises:

1. Model the Way (Accountability)

Student Leaders are expected to lead by example and be good role models. They will exemplify our school values through their actions and influence others to act and follow in being a citizen of honour.

2. Inspire a Shared Vision (Effective Collaboration)

Student Leaders are to inspire and rally others to work towards a common vision and goal. They are to be equipped with effective communication skills which enable them to persuade and convince others to accept and embrace their ideas.

3. Challenge the Process (Courage)

Student Leaders search for challenging opportunities to change, grow, innovate and improve the school and the well-being of the student population.

4. Enable Others to Act (Respect)

Student Leaders are expected to be a team player and foster collaboration through building trust and facilitating relationships.

5. Encourage the Heart (Humility)

Student Leaders recognise and appreciate the contributions made by his/her team members through affirmation, encouragement and moral support. Conscious effort is also made to celebrate small success so as to build a strong sense of collective identity and community spirit.
