At Fleetdown, children are encouraged to develop the necessary skills to enable them to take responsibility for their school and to then contribute positively both to the school and wider community. In September, the children in Year 6 were encouraged to apply for prefect roles which included the Head Boy and Head Girl team. Applications were short-listed by the Senior Leadership team, with the final choice being made by staff at school.

This year, we congratulate Chloe as our Head Girl, George as our Head Boy, Ruth as our Deputy Head Girl and Archie as our Deputy Head Boy. This group of children have already played a vital role in the life of the school and we are looking forward to the improvements that they will continue to make throughout the year.

The children will form a crucial part of the school’s learning council where they work with other children alongside senior staff to reflect on things that are working well and to discuss how we can make Fleetdown even better! They are really enjoying their roles so far and are looking forward to the future of Fleetdown.
