Following a hustings process in early March, this will be a democratically elected body which will be composed of one representative from each tutor group from years 7 to 11. It will be the main platform for student voice on general issues relevant to students, and will also provide more focused reflection on school issues through the sub-committee structure. It will meet on a weekly basis and will be lead and managed by the Student Executive with support from Assistant Head Teacher, Mr Lamb

Form managers will be a democratically elected body and will be composed of one representative per form. This will take place in the March of each year. The role of the form manager is primarily to support the effective management of the form group by assisting the form tutor by ensuring effective communication and assistance with day to day tutorial processes - reading out notices / distributing letters / managing notice boards / collating merits and will also include helping with line ups during assemblies and fire drills.

Coaches will be sought via an application process from amongst year 7 students in the May of their year 7 with a total number of 6 coaches per form. Their role will be to act as mentors during their year 8 to year 7 students in their first year. Coaches will be involved in transition work with year 6 students, particularly on designated transition days and evenings. This group will receive training and support and will meet up with their year 7 students on a regular basis to carry out coaching sessions.
 

Those students who are interested in being a Sports Captain must put their names forward to their tutor and explain to the rest of their tutor group why they would like to do the job and why they think they would be good at it. The tutor group will then vote for the student they believe will represent them best, the successful student will be elected as Sports Captain for their tutor group for that academic year. The role of the Sports Captain is to represent their form at regular meetings with the PE department, organising their teams for all inter tutor group competitions, and to keep a record of who has represented the form in which activities.

The Sports Leader Level One award is offered to all year 10 students within timetabled PE lessons.

Students can express their interest in being a Student Ambassador at any point during the year, but the initial signing up process will be at the start of each academic year. Student ambassadors will be called upon during the year for Parents/carer evenings, Open days, Speech day and as tour guides. Their primary role will be to act as good publicists for the school and to support the school in the management of whole school events. They will receive appropriate training tailored to the event that they will support. All students should be encouraged to register voluntarily as DHSG ambassadors.
