New Coaching Programme Developing Leadership Qualities

Alongside adding our Middle School leaders to the Prefect Leadership Camp, a new coaching programme between Year 11 coaches and Year 8 mentees has been established. Our Year 11 coaches meet regularly during ETT with their Year 8 coachee to guide them through effective goal setting and navigating the transition from Year 8 to Year 9.

Creating a sense of belonging and connectedness is crucial for our students, especially junior students and those new to the College. This programme aims to improve overall wellbeing during this transition and provides the opportunity for our Year 11 coaches to develop their leadership skills, learning to be effective coaches to their peers. This mutually beneficial experience for both cohorts has also seen new friendships form, and we look forward to seeing how this programme develops into a wellestablished part of the College.
