Jackson Student Leadership Team (JSLT)

Our Jackson Student Leadership Team (JSLT) are our Student Representative Council (SRC). This is made up of elected students from Years 4 to Year 12. Students submit an application and sit an interview as part of this process. The JSLT provide opportunities for student voice, agency and leadership. Our captains and student leaders play an important role in providing feedback to the leadership team as well as representing the Jackson School at events and greeting important visitors to the school. The JSLT meet weekly to discuss feedback from students, upcoming events and work together on leadership projects.
