Further information about our student executive team for 2024-2025 can be found below:

Church Lawton School

Ethan

My name is Ethan, and I will be going into year 10 this academic year at Church Lawton school. Whilst being here, I have had the opportunity to be part of the school student executive team, which means I am one of the voices for the students in my school and a representative to other schools. This could be notifying any concerns they might have and how to improve their experience at this school. I am thrilled to be part of the team, and I will make sure that I will be the right fit for this role. I enjoy taking part in political topics and am very passionate about what happens in the world.

Zach

My name is Zach. I am currently in Year 11 at Church Lawton School. I have loved being part of the student executive team and will continue my role this academic year. As part of the student executive team, I feel it helps the students to express their views and opinions within the school. By supporting this team, I can help to feedback any discussions we have had after every meeting. I have enjoyed this role as it has given me an opportunity to work and discuss points with everyone. I am interested in having trampolining lessons to try and have more skills.

Thames Valley School

Marshall

My name is Marshall and I am going into Year 7 at Thames Valley School. Being part of the Student Executive Team means I can provide student voice which can influence decisions and changes at TVS and across Liberty Academy Trust schools. This is important so that students are happy with their school experience. Within the team, I am particularly interested in making sure that all the suggestions that are put forward make sense and are fair.

Alfie

My name is Alfie and I am going into Year 8 at Thames Valley School. I enjoy being part of the Student Executive Team as I can discuss important matters with the CEO and other students across Liberty Academy Trust. On the team, I represent the voice of students at Thames Valley School and I feedback to my peers. I find it particularly important to listen to everyone’s suggestions and opinions and hear people out in the meetings. My special interests include podcasting, sports such as F1 and enrichment opportunities.

Vanguard School

Austin

My name is Austin and I am in Year 11 at Vanguard School. This will be my first year on the Student Executive Team. I wanted to join the team because I think that there is lots that the school can do to improve student personal development. One project I worked on last year was to discuss with the Principal how we might build in a tuck shop and use the voice of students to influence this. I also helped to organise work with Oasis, a local charity that runs Go-Karting and mechanic sessions. I was able to work as a team leader on this and saw students across different year groups develop skills in teamwork, as well as how to fix up the vehicles.

Sophia

My name is Sophia and this will be second year on the Student Executive Team. I am in Year 9 at Vanguard School. I think this role is really important because it means that I have a role to play in the development of my school. Over the last year, we have reviewed how lessons should be structured and how they can be better organised to help the students at Vanguard. I also helped to review the Student Chart and the Student Behaviour Policy. I want to be involved this year so that I can explore how we can our budget can help to improve the school.
