Student Leadership

We work hard to develop our students as leaders across the Academy, to promote tolerance and mutual respect as well as confidence and self-esteem.

Some of the roles which students currently undertake are:

• Diversity Ambassadors
• Anti Bullying Ambassadors
• Mental Health Ambassadors
• Library Ambassadors
• Subject Ambassadors
• Student Council
• Sports Leaders
• Year 11 Prefects
• Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme

We give students opportunities to shape their experiences at the Academy and beyond it, instilling in them a sense of pride and achievement in all we do. All students have the opportunity to have their voices heard through a variety of platforms: within lesson, personal development time, learning walks and different action teams such as the MEA Action Team and the Healthy Schools Action Group.

Student commitment is celebrated with a range of rewards across the curriculum and pastorally, resulting in a pride and desire to be an outstanding MEA citizen.
