Pupil Leadership Team
Higher Bebington Junior School
Pupil Leadership Team
At Higher Bebington Junior School, we believe the best schools have a pupil-led culture where children take on key leadership roles and get their voice heard. We wholeheartedly value the work of our pupil leaders- using it to shape the teaching and learning that happens at our school. We are moulding leaders of the future so they are ready for work and ready for the world. We strive to craft confident and articulate leaders who can share their views to any audience and apply their leadership skills to real-life situations.
Our children feel safe to share their opinions and viewpoints. This is gathered through pupil voice surveys, learning walks, and team meetings for the various pupil leadership teams.
