Student Leadership

Students will gain leadership experience.

We expect all students to take advantage of opportunities to develop their leadership skills whilst in the sixth form. The wide range of activities are as follows:

• Community work

• In-class support or mentoring for younger students at AGS or in primary schools

• Becoming a qualified reading mentor

• Being a sports leader

 

Student Leadership Group

The Student Leadership Group (SLG) comprises of two or three Head Students, five Deputy Head Students and a group of Student Leaders.

To be a member of SLG, candidates are chosen by application and interview.

The Head Students represent the school at a number of community events and are expected to give presentations to parents, students and teachers when required. The group also work on their own initiatives each year and are our students' representatives.

"With staff that challenge the students to ask bigger questions and challenge ideas to further both their academic and personal development, Allerton Grange Sixth Form truly is a community that strives to become the best it possibly can. The academic support we receive is excellent, with teachers always making time to answer any questions or give any additional support to students who ask for it. Not only does our Sixth Form aim to push us academically but also socially by providing endless opportunities to participate in the wider school community, through leadership and ambassador positions, to help us become well-rounded people. There is a wide variety of enrichment run for students to teach valuable skills and encourage them to participate in new activities and interact with the wider Sixth Form student body. The Sixth Form team goes above and beyond the academic to help students achieve their full potential, be it with applications, work experience or volunteering placements. Allerton Grange Sixth Form is a supportive community that is the best stepping stone between high school and beyond, regardless of if that is the world of work or higher education."


"Everyone has a dream of who they aspire to be - whether that be a talented chef, a skilled doctor, or a professional athlete - and everyone deserves the opportunities to make that dream into a reality. At Allerton Grange Sixth Form, those opportunities form the foundation of the student experience. Our expert teachers do not just share their knowledge; they challenge, inspire, and guide individuals to strive to reach their full potential. Alongside academics, Allerton Grange Sixth Form life provides a plethora of opportunities to get involved in, such as PSHE, volunteering, mentoring, clubs, trips, and whole-school events, helping build confidence, independence, and social skills. The Student Leadership Group gives students the chance to take on responsibilities, develop leadership skills, and contribute to shaping the Sixth Form and high school experience, helping make the school an even better place. From settling in to growing into capable young adults, students at Allerton Grange Sixth Form are supported every step of the way, acquiring the skills needed for success."

 

"I chose to study at Allerton Grange due to the excellent opportunities and A level courses including Classics, an opportunity which is unique to this Sixth Form. I love the teachers who are passionate about the subjects they teach which makes me feel more engaged in my lessons, helping me learn and explore the wider context for a deeper understanding of the courses I study. With smaller class sizes, I feel heard and personally supported especially when it comes to feedback and areas I don’t initially understand. Through enrichment, student leadership and much more, there are countless opportunities which enrich your Sixth Form experience and help to prepare for your steps beyond. Regardless of if you have been at Allerton Grange since Year 7 or are new this year, the transition experience is friendly and comfortable, and the Sixth Form Team are always available for any needs that may arise."
