AIS Students’ committees are set up and are chaired by (and often entirely made up of) students and are central to the pursuit of the AIS goals within the school. The AIS Students’ committee fosters active, democratic, student leadership and engagement, with its primary roles being to develop student voice within the school, and to work out how to inspire, engage and involve the whole student body in embracing the AIS goals. The Students’ Committee creates and leads programs and activities that facilitate this, with the support of the school teachers and leadership team.
We use the student’s committee as a mechanism for creating a number of key student leadership roles, providing multiple opportunities to develop personal responsibility and servant-leadership skills in students.
Membership of a student’s committee is a serious responsibility and requires the energy, efforts and imagination of all its members throughout the year. Committees should arrange to meet to plan how they can help in the smooth running of the school and engage the interest of the children during the year. All committees should seek to involve other staff and the students in their activities.
