Head and Deputy Head Boy and Girl at Joydens Wood Junior School

As part of our citizenship education, we believe that children need to experience duties and responsibilities that come with being a member of a community in order to help them prepare to play an active role as citizens.

At Joydens Wood Junior School we believe that our Head and Deputy Head Boy and Girl have a very important role to play in the day to day organisation of our school.  The position not only allows these four Year Six pupils to lead by example and demonstrate their responsibility, it also enables the younger children to learn from a good example.

The pupils who have been awarded these positions were chosen by all the staff at JWJS.  Staff were given the job descriptions for these roles and decided who they through was best suited depending on their conduct throughout years 2 - 5.  This will be held as a democratic a secret ballot.


Joydens Wood Junior School Head/Deputy Head Boy and Girl must lead by example at all times in their behaviour, the respect they show to others and their school uniform.
