Student Leadership

We believe in nurturing leadership at every level, including among young people who will shape the future. Building on the success of our work with education professionals, we are proud to introduce our Student Leadership Conference, a platform designed to inspire and empower students to take on meaningful leadership roles.

"I'm really excited for the pupils in my Trust Schools to be able to access this event. To hear from Maggie Alphonsi and take part in the other elements of the conference is such an amazing opportunity."

Our conference aims

Inspire

Our Student Leadership Conference aims to engage pupils across our partnership in a dynamic day of enriching activities and inspiring discussions. The event will feature keynote addresses by sector leaders and pupils will participate in seminars led by our charity partners, encouraging students to explore impactful global issues.

Enrich

Every pupil will also enjoy a guided tour of the Nottingham Trent University campus, led by student ambassadors. This experience will showcase the facilities and opportunities available to them as they progress in their education, helping to raise their aspirations and broaden their horizons.

Impact

To extend the impact of the conference, participating schools will receive funding to develop a social action project led by their students. These projects will be supported and monitored throughout the year, ensuring that the inspiration and learning from the event translate into meaningful action within school communities.

.

Our event, and the ongoing work of our students has been made possible due to the kind donations of local business partners who will help to make the event a success. We are extremely grateful for their support and passion for enabling pupils to become young leaders and to make a difference in the world.
