Student Leadership at Da Vinci Academy

Da Vinci Academy places pupil voice at the heart of decisions made. By creating a Student Leadership Team to be proud of we are confident that we have a robust mechanism for capturing pupil voice ensuring that students feel listened to. Student Leadership will be developed, and refined over the course of academic year 2024-25, with significant inputs from staff and students. Miss K Bradshaw (Associate Assistant Headteacher) will lead on these developments, working closely with and reporting to all members of SLT.

We are incredibly proud of the Student Leadership Team we have in place and have no doubt it will go from strength to strength in the months and years ahead.
