Leadership for All
At Trinity, we believe that leadership is not reserved for a small group of students, it is something every young person can develop. Our approach is rooted in the idea that great leaders are formed through experience, service and responsibility. Leadership helps student grow in character, confidence and independence, and prepares them to play a positive role in their communities long after they leave Sixth Form.
Our Sixth Form is built on a “Leadership for All” model. This means every student, not just those with a formal position, is encouraged and expected to contribute to the life of the school. Each term, every Sixth Form student undertakes at least one leadership or service role. These roles include supporting younger students through our Guardian Angel mentoring programme, leading events, contributing to chaplaincy and charity initiatives, speaking at assemblies, or assisting in academic and pastoral projects across the school. Their leadership also reaches into the wider community, where students support primary schools, contribute to local charities and take part in outreach projects that reflect our values in action.
Through these experiences, students learn key leadership qualities such as communication, initiative, teamwork, empathy, problem-solving, and decision-making. They become role models within the community and develop the maturity needed to thrive.
The Student Leadership Team
At the heart of our leadership culture is our Student Leadership Team, a group of highly committed Sixth Form students who represent the school and help shape the direction of student life. They lead by example, support whole-school initiatives and inspire others to take responsibility for their own contribution. Their roles span areas such as Student Voice, STEM, Chaplaincy, Charity, Equality, Diversity & Inclusion, Wellbeing, Sports, Oracy, Creative Arts and more.

Student Voice
Student voice is a vital part of Sixth Form life, ensuring that students feel heard, valued and actively involved in shaping their community. Sixth Formers contribute to key discussions, influence decisions that affect their experience and work collaboratively with staff to improve the culture and environment of the school. This emphasis on student voice helps young people develop confidence, leadership and ownership, empowering them to play a meaningful role in the life of the Sixth Form and preparing them for active participation beyond school.
