Pupil Leadership Team Being a prefect on the Pupil Leadership Team is a fabulous opportunity to develop leadership skills and to take part in the running of the School. Roles are open to all girls regardless of how long they have been at the school, and we regularly have students who are new to RMS on the team. Prefects are invited to apply in writing for a position on the Team during the Hilary Term. Selection and allocation of roles is made via a process which includes an interview, a group task and a presentation, and an independent advisor is invited to participate in the selection process. The full team is finalised before the Easter holidays to allow a smooth handover from the outgoing Prefects.
The Head Girl Team is made up of the Head Girl (or two Head Girls in the academic Year 2021) and six Deputies, each of whom is responsible for leading a team of Prefects in a certain area of the School Community. Training sessions covering different aspects of leadership are offered to the Head Girl Team and other members of the Pupil Leadership Team as needed. All Prefects have a member of staff whom they directly report to and who will support and guide them in their role. In addition, the Head Girl Team meets weekly with the Deputy Head of Hind House.
