If you are in Year 6 and would like to be considered for House Captain, you can use the attached checklist to help you with your written application. You do not need to have evidence for every bullet point, and your evidence could just be how you’d show or do these things if elected. It will be important in the role that you can speak up, step up, have a go, think about the whole team, and be an excellent role model.
