FRAMEWORK

3 Facets of Leadership

 The Competent facet aims to enable leaders to manage their soft skills as leaders which include, vision casting, rallying people through setting up clear aims and running projects, managing and ensuring the efficient execution of events/tasks.

The Constructive facet focuses on value adding to self and others in a position of leadership. Leaders are to grow in awareness of self and schoolmates. By heightening their personal awareness and empowering to positively influence both peers and juniors, they will grow as active contributors to create a positive and constructive school environment and culture.

The Compassionate facet focuses on the leaders’ growth in social awareness and sensitivity to the needs of others, harnessing the moral compass of every individual.

The TK student leader is the epitome of Competence, Constructiveness and Compassion.
