Leadership

I have captained teams to a high standard at several sports, motivating and helping those who feel less capable, and recognising when people have played well Within the army cadets I was one of just 4 in my year group selected for promotion at the summer camp and I regularly lead teams of younger cadets, teaching them my little hacks but learning with hem along the way

Within music ensembles I believe I demonstrate leadership through organising rehearsals, costumes, and even making sure everyone is fed They call me the Mum of the group - the sensible one!

Independence

I have had work experience where I have had to work on my own and with people much older than me, and not disappoint At home I cook meals and help out regularly around the house involving my brother, helping him to achieve basic living skills , from washing up to homework Independently I work constantly organise my work to exceed in my studies as well

Resilience / Staying positive

I take feedback well and then try to improve myself I have had a couple knock downs, one on CCF during the summer, but throughout I decided improvement would be the best way to attack the struggles and I feel that listening to peoples suggestions will help me proceed to be a better person overall At school if I have not achieved where I need to be, I am not afraid to ask for help or attend extra sessions

Army Summer camp was also one of the hardest things I have ever done, but I was determined to get through it, and I did

Communication

I am a strong communicator able to put across my point clearly and with passion I am often nominated within house tasks to be the spokesperson, am on the pupil panel and am now applying for school council I have my radio signaller qualification from Army Cadets and am willing to push through and gain more communication skills
