Leadership is the art of creating positive change by motivating and influencing others towards a common goal. Opportunities to lead will allow students to develop interpersonal skills, communicate effectively which in turn will promote strong relationships within community members.
“People who lead - whether or not they have a title - strive to make things better for those around them”
Student leadership has been placed at the center of everything we do at Safa. Our students are supported by all staff to ensure they are able to flourish to their full potential. Our leadership programme does this by ensuring the following:
The purpose of the School Council is to create a positive school atmosphere and promote the general interest and welfare of students as well as to promote and influence the quality of student life at Safa British School.

Mentoring is the influence, guidance, or direction given by a mentor. In a school setting, we will always encourage students to support their peers in their personal or academic development. Being a mentor serves as a way to give back and is an important development and learning experience. Teaching others is the best way to learn yourself. In the same way, mentors become more competent as leaders and communicators as they guide and help rising talent.
"Leadership is the capacity to influence others through inspiration motivated by passion, generated by vision, produced by a conviction, ignited by a purpose."
At Safa the aim of the student council is to serve as an essential body that represents the voice of the student community and contributes significantly to school life. The student council is composed of elected representatives from each year group, and it gives students the opportunity to take on leadership roles, engage in decision-making processes, and work collaboratively with staff and fellow students to improve the school environment.
Student council members often participate in organising events and promoting school spirit and unity. Additionally, they act as a bridge between students and administration, ensuring that students’ ideas, suggestions, and concerns are heard and considered. Through regular meetings, council members discuss ways to enhance the academic and extracurricular experiences at the school, taking part in decisions that affect student life, such as implementing new programs, improving facilities, or planning community activities.
In serving as role models, student council members develop important skills such as teamwork, communication, and leadership, which can benefit them throughout their academic and professional careers. Their work encourages a sense of responsibility and fosters a strong sense of community within the school, promoting values of inclusivity, respect, and collaboration. Overall, the student council plays a vital role in shaping a positive and dynamic school culture here at Safa British School.
