The Young Leaders Program is a school-based program that teaches the skills and attitudes needed for effective student and youth leadership. It is a program that teachers can easily conduct with their students. You don’t have to hire expensive consultants in or send your students away on excursions for them to learn the skills of leadership. The Young Leaders program lets you immerse them in a rich leadership program right in your own school.
Watch school tone lift
World-wide trends show the positive impact that student leadership training can have on a school. Student behaviour improves, staff morale lifts and parent satisfaction ratings soar when schools conduct effective student programs.

The program consists of class lessons, activities and units of work that teachers can conduct with their student leadership teams or on a whole class basis.
The program is based around the five featured building blocks of:
- Responsibility
- Public speaking
- Confidence
- Organisation
- Teamwork

The program teaches the key mindsets or attitudes of:
- stepping up
- speaking up,
- have a go,
- think team
- show the way
