House Captains: Key expectations

Help to organise and run House Activities Recruit students from throughout the school to be involved in House Activities. Work closely with Heads of House and carry out duties that may be required by HoH. These roles require very good organisational and leadership skills. House Captains must have shown clear commitment to House Activities whilst at St Barts. Speaking in House Assemblies and visits to tutor groups will be expected. You are strongly advised to discuss with Heads of House before application they will have more information for you.

Guidance on applying (House Captains)

Letters of Application addressed to House Heads. Please hand these in to Mrs Tyson. - Formal and business-like - Why you are the right person for the role. What are your key skills and qualities? What leadership experience do you have? - How have you proved your commitment to your House? - What impact would you make? What initiatives and changes would you look to introduce?

Other Opportunities
Subject Reps (see next slide for details) 2 per subject. Apply for only one subject. Additional roles for Numeracy, Literacy, Science. Applications after Easter.

There will be opportunities to represent your Tutor Group on the 6th Form Council too.

Subject Reps
-Take the lead in representing the subject at open day and other recruitment opportunities (assemblies). They would coordinate other students to help with this. - Act as a bridge between staff and students, relaying student concerns and addressing these with staff. - Coordinate roundtable feedback sessions in the spring term with representatives from classes to secure student feedback. - Act as a figurehead for the subject. Y12s could seek support and advice (but not necessarily private tutoring!) and Y11s could try to find out more about the subject in the 6th form. - Potentially speaking to groups of Y11s about their subject. - Potentially coordinate some support (both for less able and for gifted and talented).
