Selection

We give interested students the chance to put themselves forward for selection, following a presentation of the programme at a school assembly by Future Leaders staff.

Students nominate themselves by completing a simple CV. This will include listing their potential and key skills and any leadership roles they have played at home, school, church or in the community.

A final selection will be made by the School Dean and Future Leaders staff. The students will have a final interview, and at this point a meeting will be arranged with the successful students' caregivers. Following this meeting, selected students will officially be welcomed into the Future Leaders Programme. Both caregivers and students will sign a contract outlining the terms of acceptance, expectations, etc.

Each student and her mentor will develop an individualised development plan each year. This plan will include:

  • academic and community goals
  • programmes to enhance confidence or self-esteem
  • physical/sporting activity or outdoor education
  • health knowledge including smoking, drugs, alcohol, sexual health
  • appropriate cultural activity
  • areas of personal interest
