Topic 2: Being a Leader Who is a Role Model

Schools expect their leaders to be role models, but it’s not always clear what that actually looks like in practice. This session explores how student leaders can intentionally model the things that have the biggest impact on others. We will focus on three key traits to model: high standards, demonstrating values, and the right attitude.

Topic 3: New Ideas to Support Our School

If students are going to put effort towards new ideas, it is important that these ideas are valued by the people that are counting on leaders. This practical workshop will showcase dozens of impressive ideas that students have implemented at other schools, which are also realistic and meaningful. Activities during this workshop will enable students to have discussions with other schools, to share experiences and generate new ideas together.
