Student Leadership

The Merahan Leadership Programme aims to provide student leaders with the skills and opportunities to lead and inspire fellow Merahans. Anchored on the Prefectorial Board, it also caters to Leaders of the respective CCAs, and Chairpersons of Class Committees.

The Prefectorial Board, comprising students who have displayed leadership dispositions and exemplary behaviour, is a key avenue through which student leaders learn to represent and lead their peers. The Secondary One Orientation Programme and Teachers’ Day Celebrations are two major events in which Prefects are heavily involved in planning and implementation, and provide Prefects with the opportunity to apply the skills and knowledge they have acquired in authentic, large-scale projects.

CCA Leaders go through a diverse range of developmental experiences as they lead their peers in their respective CCAs, while Chairpersons of Class Committees undergo a series of customised learning experiences as they work with their classmates and teachers to create an inviting and positive classroom environment and culture.
