"There are numerous roles and responsibilities on offer for pupils to build their leadership qualities."

Ofsted, 11 and 12 March 2025

At Westfield Junior School we promote leadership opportunities for all children.

Leadership opportunities for children in school are crucial for developing their confidence, communication skills, and sense of responsibility.  These opportunities can take various forms, such as becoming a House Captain, School Councillor, Digital Leader, and more.  Through these roles, children learn the importance of teamwork, problem-solving, and decision-making. Additionally, leadership positions allow pupils to build empathy and gain a better understanding of the needs and perspectives of others.  By encouraging children to take on leadership roles, the school helps nurture future leaders who are well-equipped to navigate challenges and positively impact their communities.
