Leadership Opportunities
We encourage all of our students to develop their leadership skills by taking part in some of the many opportunities available, from peer mentoring of lower school students to maths ‘buddying’ to acting as prefects or joining our student leadership team who are involved in making decisions which involve the whole school.

Head Student
Kallika Vyas
I am excited to begin my work as Head Student. Above all, I hope to improve students’ confidence and enthusiasm in their studies, primarily by building upon the success of our paired reading programme and establishing a mentoring system to cover a wider variety of subjects and year groups. I will also strive to immerse students in the wider Lymm community, creating links with local businesses and promoting social responsibility. I aim to set up an initiative which promotes the merits of part-time work as a vehicle for the development of industry-based skills. Finally, I wish to ensure that Life Programme sessions equip students with the necessary skills to enter adulthood in 2025.

As Deputy Head Student, I aspire to provide greater encouragement and participation of women’s sport, ensuring everybody has a chance to try something new and express their talent. I am organising and delivering events to encourage participation for young women, and I am relishing the opportunity to see students getting involved. I am also part of a team which is developing an academic mentoring programme to provide support for my peers in the year groups below me. This will provide a supportive environment where students can build confidence in their ability and look up to their older role models. I am eager to leave a positive legacy in my role and will work hard to ensure students have an enjoyable, welcoming experience at Lymm High School.
The holders of our senior leadership positions outlined their vision at the start of the year, and they are currently working towards their goals. Grace is striving to improve links with businesses in our local area, whilst Lucy is embedding support for students aspiring to achieve places at prestigious universities. Ed is working alongside our mental health team in school and paying particular attention to men’s mental health. Emily is working along side our eco and charities teams.
However, student leadership goes beyond the senior positions, and it is more than just a job title. We have functional areas which address charities, equality and diversity, mental health, community liaison, environmental issues, and scholars. Our charities team raise funds for MacMillan, Wear it Pink Breast Cancer Awareness, Children in Need, Save the Children along with our legacy hall charities Claire House, Meningitis Research Foundation, Help for Heroes, St Rocco’s Hospice and The Christie. Our Eco Team are working hard with our lower school students to ensure we retain our status as a “National Eco-School”. Along with staff they manage teams for water, transport, and biodiversity.
