Student Leadership
Barnhill Changemakers
Changemakers are those that do more for the good of the whole. To be a changemaker takes tenacity, creativity, originality, and confidence. At Barnhill we develop student character so that everyone has the opportunity to become a changemaker.
Student Leadership
We create multiple opportunities for pupil leadership both within and outside the classroom, including leaders in different subject areas, our school council, year 11 prefect system and Green Group. We strive to develop individuals who play a proactive role in providing support for their peers, whilst also representing the school in opportunities where they may tour / interview / debate with attending visitors. We encourage students to develop their personal and interpersonal skills through the wide range of student leadership opportunities.
