Today’s sixth form students are tomorrow's leaders. With this in mind we provide a variety of ways for our sixth form students to show their leadership potential.

Student mentoring

Post 16 students will be assigned a mentee (in lower school) who they would meet with once a week to discuss any issues or concerns they may have. This is an inspiring and powerful role, with students in lower school citing the valuable support that is given to them by their P16 mentor.

Student readers

At Outwood Grange Academy, we have excellent systems of support in place for literacy catch up. Post 16 students can support this by becoming reading buddies for lower school students. This would involve choosing and reading appropriate books with students in year 7 and 8 to allow them to develop their core literacy skills.

Sports leaders

Working with the PE department, students would take on responsibility for leading PE activities and after school sports activities.

Student Ambassador

In keeping with lower school students, Post 16 students will be offered the opportunity to participate in student voice programmes and shape the running of our Post 16 provision.
