Meet this year's Head Boy and Head Girl

Towards the end of each academic year, staff and students vote for who they would like to form the next Prefect Team.

The School's Head Boy and Head Girl are the student figureheads of our School community and play a vital role in supporting the day to day activities that go on across the Junior, Senior and Sixth Form from welcoming prospective families at open events to taking leading roles in School activities.

This year, Emma Herritty and Adithya Manigandan were chosen as our 2021-2022 Head Prefects.

The Prefect Team also consists of the following students: Rosie Bennett, Oliver Brookes, Arun Giri, Cian Gopal, Josh Harris, Morgan Lathbury-Cox, Lucy Munson, Olivia Roberts, Anya Rogers and Beth Seager.
