Giving students the opportunity to take on leadership roles helps them grow in confidence, develop responsibility and show their potential to lead. Our student leaders play a vital role in shaping our school community, supporting their peers and representing the values of UTC Plymouth both inside and outside the classroom.

We see student leadership as more than just a title, it’s a chance for young people to:
Build teamwork and communication skills
Develop resilience and confidence
Contribute positively to the school community
Act as role models for their peers
Gain valuable experience that prepares them for future education and careers
By encouraging students to step into leadership roles, we empower them to make a difference and show that their voices matter.
Our student leaders are actively involved in:
Representing the student voice in school improvement initiatives
Organising school events and celebrations
Supporting anti‑bullying initiatives
Leading fundraising activities for local charities
Acting as ambassadors during open evenings and school tours
Providing peer mentoring and support
Taking part in employment interview panels
Hosting high profile visitors.
Their contributions help make UTC Plymouth a welcoming, supportive, and inspiring place to learn.
We encourage all students to consider applying for leadership roles. Opportunities are advertised throughout the year and training is provided to help students succeed.
Parents and carers can support by encouraging their children to take part, recognising their achievements, and celebrating the positive impact they make.
