From Our Head of Senior School

Leadership Comes in all Shape and Sizes

There are various leadership types and styles, each characterised by different approaches to decision-making, communication, and team interaction.

Head of Senior School

At Investigator we want to inspire our young people into leadership opportunities. The skills they can learn and the experience as a young leader, will no doubt help them in any future career.

In Week 5, the Middle and Senior Schools were fortunate enough to hear from our very own aspiring leaders. The College Captain and Vice Captain application process involved a written application, a speech to peers and an interview with the Senior Leadership Team. We were so impressed with the calibre of six applicants and their passion for leading their peers in 2024.

The four successful applicants are:

College Captains – Matthew Boyd and Chloe McPherson
College Vice Captains – Omid Hussaini and Ollie Leech.

Each of these individuals will possess their own leadership style and we look forward to seeing what they can bring to our College in 2024.
