Such positions allow them to appreciate some of the challenges that accompany leadership roles, along with giving them the opportunity to refine key skills such as communication, teamwork, public speaking and organisation. There are a number of roles available to our students, illustrated in the diagram above. - The **Post-16 Leadership team**, consisting of students in Years 12 and 13, has oversight of what all student leaders are doing, and play a key role in organising events. - We have **Prefects**, from students in years 10-12, who are responsible for taking on whole-school responsibilities such as: - Supporting at Open Evening and other evening events - Supporting at charity events - Delivering assemblies - Contributing to the school’s outreach work - Peer reading - Supporting Year 7 tutor groups during form time - Students can become **QM Leaders** in one or more the categories below: - Queensmead Active – for significant contributions to Sport and Fitness. - Queensmead Creative – for significant contributions to Drama, Music and Art. - Queensmead STEM – for significant contributions to Science, Technology and Maths. - Queensmead Academic – for significant contributions to interventions, personalised and small group tuition. - Queensmead Culture and Community – for significant contributions to charity, fundraising, student leadership, Modern Foreign Languages. - There are two **Year Captains** in every year group from 7 to 11, chosen by the Head of Year at the start of the academic year. Our **Year Captains** meet with the **Post-16 Student Leadership Team** once a half term. - There is also a **Form Captain** who will represent each form group. They are chosen by their form tutor and will meet with the **Year Captains** once a half term. ### Learning - [Statement of Intent](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/curriculum/statement-of-intent) - [Curriculum Maps](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/curriculum/curriculum-maps) - [KS3 Curriculum](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/curriculum/ks3-curriculum) - [KS4 Curriculum](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/curriculum/ks4-curriculum) - [KS5 Curriculum](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/curriculum/ks5-curriculum) - [The Wider Curriculum](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/curriculum/the-wider-curriculum) - [Super Curriculum](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/curriculum/super-curriculum) - [Careers](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/curriculum/careers) - [Literacy](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/curriculum/literacy) - [Personal Development](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/curriculum/personal-development) - [Extra Curricular Activities](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/curriculum/extra-curricular-activities) - Beyond the Classroom - [Benefits of the wider curriculum](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/benefits-of-the-wider-curriculum) - [Wider Curriculum at Queensmead School](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/wider-curriculum-at-queensmead-school) - [Charities](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/charities) - [Community Languages](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/community-languages) - [Concerts](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/concerts) - [CREST Awards](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/crest-awards) - [Drama Productions](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/drama-productions) - [Educational Visits](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/educational-visits) - [Extracurricular Activities](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/extracurricular-activities) - [Jack Petchey “Speak Out” Challenge](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/jack-petchey-speak-out-challenge) - [Music Tuition](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/music-tuition) - [Outreach](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/outreach) - [STEM](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/stem) - [Student Leadership](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/student-leadership) - [The Scholars Programme](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/the-scholars-programme) ![Queensmead School](https://files.schudio.com/queensmead-school-2/images/logo/Logo-Footer.png) ### Queensmead School Queens Walk South Ruislip Middlesex HA4 0LS 020 8845 6266 ### Quick Links: - Term Dates - [Contact Us](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/contact) - [News](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/news) - [Calendar](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/calendar) - [Post 16](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/post-16) - [Admissions](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/our-school/admissions) - [Curriculum](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/curriculum/ks5-curriculum) - [Ofsted Report](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/our-school/ofsted) - [Newsletter](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/parents/newsletter) - [Students](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/students) - [Uniform](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/parents/uniform) [![Partnership Learning](https://files.schudio.com/queensmead-school-2/images/logo/AAAPartnership-Learning_white.png)](https://partnershiplearning.com) © Copyright 2026 Queensmead School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
