Student Leadership

Unity Grammar Leadership Program

Unity Grammar believes that student leadership allows students to learn about social justice as they participate in activities that highlight the roles and responsibilities of being a part of a diverse community.

Student Shura Councils (SSCs) and student leadership positions where students captain academic and sport teams are an aspect of the leadership experience at Unity Grammar.

At Unity Grammar our focus is on every student reaching their full potential to become well rounded individuals and the leaders of tomorrow. It is through the teaching of essential life skills and the development of important attitudes that every child can create a strong independent personality and character built on the foundation of our Islamic Faith.

We believe that involving students in leadership activities is a useful strategy for gaining the cooperation of students and increasing the value of schooling for both students and their families. As such, Unity Grammar provides numerous opportunities for students to participate in and apply their leaderships skills.

Prefect roles in both the Junior and Senior schools have been created to give responsible leaders the ability to lead with success.
