Overview
We are passionate about providing our students with the skills they need to become leaders in their community. Our Student Leadership programme creates a wide range of opportunities for students to take responsibility.
Primary Student Leadership
Junior Leadership Team
At Ark Globe Academy we teach our students about how society is organised and governed. We ensure that they experience the process of democracy in school through the Junior Leadership Team (JLT). The members of the JLT are elected through a secret ballot after candidates has shared their ‘manifestos’ with their peers. The JLT meets regularly to discuss school issues and to encourage students to present their points of view to make changes throughout the school. All students learn about their rights and responsibilities and learn to appreciate what it means to be a member of a diverse multicultural society.
Class Leaders
Two students (one girl, one boy) are chosen each half term to be Class Leaders. Their role is to welcome all visitors to the classroom by greeting them at the door and articulating what they are currently learning about in class. This is an opportunity for our students to demonstrate professionalism and leadership, skills that will support them in future careers.

"I have come to learn and understand many things whilst being at Ark Globe. One of which is that the sense of community is the clay that moulds it to be such an outstanding academy. I know that at Ark Globe we pride ourselves through the work we do as a community. Acommunity thrives through those who build the connections. As Head Girl, I will be the bridge that connects teachers and students. By fostering attributes of the Culture Pyramid, I will create an environment welcoming for all."
Di'Mario Downer
"As Head Boy, I am inspired and motivated by the benefits that a strong sense of community can providefor students at school. This motivation has been significantly amplified by the pandemic the impact of which on social interaction is especially prevalent at Ark Globe. By reinforcing solidarity among students and teachers,I’d like to create an environment, that students know, will both support them and celebrate their hard work.Supported by the foundation built on the values of the Culture Pyramid such as Growth Mindset and Independence, I view a welcoming and positive atmosphere at Ark Globe Academy as integral to both the success and happiness of students."

"I learnt to gain strength from bad situations, so that today I can stand in front of others to show that there is strength within us, and that can take us to where we want to go. We can do it together, and in the end, we are all one family."
