SABER Leaders Development Program
Redcliffe State High School believes that all students are capable of developing leadership skills and contributing to the student voice in our school community.
In order to help our students develop these skills, Redcliffe High has developed the
SABER Leaders Development Program (SLDP). School leadership programs are more sustainable if leadership skills, knowledge, attitudes and values are encouraged through a structured leadership program such as the SABER Leaders Development Program. Leadership can be an important catalyst for building students’ awareness that their views are important to staff in the school and that they can have an influence on what happens to students in the school.
The program aims to:
- improve student contribution and participation in the development of a happy, safe and dynamic school environment within the school
- empower students in school decision making through involvement in school life, enabling a greater sense of belonging and connectedness
- develop student leadership skills and to promote improved learning outcomes
- encourage and promote whole school ownership and involvement in student welfare, leadership and participation.
All students are welcome to apply for registration in the SABER Leaders Development Program. To read about the requirements of the program, download the SABER leaders development program handbook (PDF, 1.5MB). Students who successfully complete the program will be awarded a SABER Leader badge.
If students wish to nominate for School Executive Leadership positions (as outlined below) they must have completed the SABER Leadership Development Program and been awarded a SABER Leader badge at least once prior to nomination.
