At St. George's, our vision statement says:
Be brave. Be great. Be you.
To fulfil this call to action and culture statement for our pupils, it is incredibly important that the children of St. George's have a voice.
To 'Be great', requires great leadership. Step forward, St. George's pupil leadership team.
