Welcome from our WGSB Student Leaders

The role of our Head Students is a vital one that adds value to the student body, and to school life in general.  Our WGSB Head Students embody our school values and are key in representing our student cohort in key senior leadership meetings and decision making.  They contribute to school life in so many ways, conceiving of schemes and activities that enhance our collective school experience, acting as inspirational, approachable role models and generally being our student cheerleaders and champions!  This year’s Student Leaders have ambitious plans for our school in areas that they have identified as being valuable and enjoyable for us all.  Introducing;

Throughout my time at WGSG, I recognised the significance of giving younger students a voice to express what they would like to see their school represent, and I am grateful to be given the opportunity to make this possible. A key goal of mine is to improve the relationship between the upper and lower school by introducing an open invitation mentoring group, run by older years, to guide and assist younger pupils in a relaxed and friendly yet informative setting. In addition, I plan to repurpose existing wildlife areas around the school, into wellbeing spaces managed and maintained by students in the younger years, with the guidance of the Year 12 electives and teachers. I further wish to establish prefect roles within the younger years that promote responsibility, community and trust while also teaching students the importance of upholding the school values in everyday life. As WGSB is a diverse and inclusive school, I plan to sustain this academic environment with my positive and approachable personality. Thank you for giving me this opportunity, and I look forward to working with you all this academic year!

In this role, my primary goal is, but not limited to, creating a more inclusive and supportive environment for all students. I plan to work closely with both students and staff to establish open communication and ensure that every voice is heard.

Whether it be student workshops, more interactive PSHE lessons, or organising events to widen knowledge in certain fields of education or the working world.

Description automatically generated Hello, My name is Rylee and I can proudly say that I am Deputy Head student at Wilmington Grammar School for Boys. Since the day I stepped foot in WGSB as a year 7 student, I felt immense pride in representing the school. Being in charge of teaching and learning within the school, I aim to make lessons more interactive and for teachers to be able to cater to the different needs of the students. I am an approachable person and would be more than happy to listen to anyone, student, teacher or parent, who has any issues or suggestions to improve the school community and environment. I also plan on rewarding top achieving students more often as this would not only help recognise students who are working hard, but it would also incentivise other students to work harder. Thank you all for reading this and I look forward to a bright future at WGSB.
