Student Leadership

In a rapidly changing and increasingly complex world, leaders with upright morals and clear purpose in every sphere and at every level inspire us to put in our best effort to improve the well-being of those around us. Driven by this motivation, Ang Mo Kio Secondary School provides platforms that caters for students to experience leadership at different pace and levels.

At the cohort level, other than being exposed to the concept of leadership in the classroom and self-reflection through the National Youth Achievement Award journey, students are also involved experiential learning activities such as level camps. Supporting these efforts are the Student Councillors, CCA Leaders and Class Committee:

A team of elected student leaders with the aim of serving the school with dedication and pride, the Student Council acts as a bridge and the voice of the students to bond the school. Through workshops, training camps and participation in key events such as the Secondary One Orientation Camp, Student Leaders Investiture, and Teachers’ and EAS Day Celebrations, Student Councillors are nurtured to become role models. As they reach out actively to serve the school and the student body, they positively influence their peers and foster a strong school spirit.

Directed at honing leadership in their various spectrum of influence, CCA Leaders are provided with numerous opportunities such as the Leadership Through Sports programme by SportSG, the Youth Sports Leaders’ Camp organised by ActiveSG, as well as CCA-based camps, workshops and attachments. These programmes aim to develop students’ character, communication skills and competencies by providing various practical experiences within multiple platforms in school and the wider community.

The Class Committee provides a platform for student leaders to practice servant leadership by leading their class based on the role entrusted to them. Students are groomed through developmental opportunities that are specific to their roles. By participating in the management of their class, class committee members are empowered to organise and lead their class in various school activities and capacity.

Ang Mo Kio Secondary School provides our students with multiple pathways to strive for their best in their journey as leaders with the belief that every child can be a leader and should be developed as one in their own field of expertise.
