Student Leadership

Every Andersonian, A Leader

At Anderson Primary School, we believe every child can lead, and leadership is nurtured not only through formal roles but through everyday actions grounded in character, competence, and consistency. Guided by Treffinger’s Levels of Service (LoS) model, our tiered Leadership Development Framework provides all Andersonians with progressive, meaningful opportunities to discover their strengths, develop key leadership competencies, and apply them authentically across school experiences.

Tier 1: Discover – Leadership for All (Class Committee)
At this foundational level, all students take on Class Committee roles that help them build confidence, practise teamwork, strengthen communication skills, and develop a strong sense of ownership over their shared learning environment.

Tier 2: Develop – Leadership for Many (Student Leaders Council)
Students who show interest, readiness, or emerging leadership qualities are given opportunities in the Student Leaders Council to further develop their leadership competencies.

Tier 3: Apply and Lead – Leadership for a Few (Student Leaders Exco)
At the highest tier, students with strong leadership aptitude, commitment, and character serve in the Student Leaders Exco, where they take on advanced responsibilities such as planning school-wide programmes, mentoring junior leaders, championing student voice, and modelling exemplary conduct.
