Student Leadership & Our House System

RVHS Student Leadership

Student Executive
Our Head Boy and Head Girl are the pillars of our whole school community. They embody ARE (Aspiration, Respect, Endeavour) and play an important role in promoting student voice across the school. They are ably supported by Deputy Head Boy and Girls. They take responsibility for different aspects of student leadership such as House Liason, Charities and Subject Ambassadors.

House Captains
Our sixth formers also have the opportunity to apply to be House Captains in year 13 and Deputy House Captains in year 12. These positions give them the opportunity to lead their house to victory in house competitions. They are required to lead inspirational assemblies and support younger students. Our House Captains lead representatives from each year group lower down the school through the House Leaders positions.

Subject Ambassadors
One sixth former has been nominated by subject staff to represent their subject. They are chosen if they embody all the characteristics to be successful to that subject. They are responsible for promoting their subject as well as mentoring students who need additional support in a particular subject area. Ambassadors are responsible for leading Subject Leaders in the lower years.

Sixth Form Captains
This role requires students to play a vital role in developing the sixth form community. They are responsible for supporting new year 12 with the transition from GCSE to A level and for planning important sixth form specific events, such as the prom.
