Community: The School Council has raised money for numerous charities, planned and delivered Christmas cards to residents of local care homes, engaged with the Horncastle town council and shadow cabinet minister Victoria Atkins, including one member completing work experience with her, and provided a pivotal role in the creation of a youth centre in Horncastle.

Internal: The School Council has been an important voice in the school development plan, with the views of students being canvassed in various aspects; some members of the Council have delivered assemblies to promote what we believe it. The Student Council also played an important role in the school being reaccredited with the British Council’s “International Schools Award”.
