As Head Prefects, we’re proud to represent Charles Darwin School and uphold our motto: Aspire, Endeavour, Achieve. These words have shaped our journey here and continue to inspire our vibrant school community.
Throughout our time at Charles Darwin School, we’ve faced challenges and learnt valuable lessons along the way. Now, in this leadership role, we’re committed to supporting and guiding others – creating an inclusive environment where every student can thrive both academically and personally.
In our final year, we aim to lead by example, champion meaningful initiatives and serve as a link between students and staff. We want to ensure every voice is heard, and every student feels supported.
Together, let’s make this a year when we aim high, support one another and celebrate all that we can achieve.
Head Prefects
Jasmine O'Brien & Seun Olawoyin
During my time at Charles Darwin I have felt challenged and motivated to try my best and achieve my potential. I have received an endless amount of help from the school from settling into Year 7 to building my confidence during Year 9 and 10. I aim to continue into sixth form to study Art, Maths and Physics A' level. After my A' levels I would like to do a degree in Architecture.
My favourite subjects are Science and Art. The lessons at Charles Darwin School are very good and the teachers are really helpful and want to help you to learn and succeed. The support I have been given by the school is amazing and really helpful. I have taken part in extra curricular netball and really enjoyed it. When I leave school I want to be a lawyer and I believe that this school will help me with this.
Since I joined Charles Darwin School I have been given lots of opportunities which have allowed me to become successful both academically and in sports. This is thanks to the teachers at the school and the support that they have given me. I have been a member of several sports teams and have taken part in the Elite Athletic Scheme. I have received an Excellence Award for P.E and have had 100% attendance. In the future I would like to be a stock broker.
I have had an extremely positive experience at Charles Darwin School. I started in Year 7 as a lower performing student to now being in the top sets for all my subjects. I enjoy all aspects of school life, and I am a prefect and an active member of the Student Voice. I look forward to studying Biology, Chemistry and Maths in sixth form, and with the help of the talented teachers at Charles Darwin school go on to do a degree in medicine.
“If you don’t challenge yourself you’ll never realise what you can become”. Being a student at Charles Darwin has made me realise this. From starting out as a young anxious Year 7 I have become a confident teenager over the years. This has helped me to achieve Platinum effort and 100% attendance since Year 7. My future aspirations are to continue with my passions of English, History and Maths through to A’ level and to then study law at University.
Presentations in the Main Hall at 5.30pm and 6.15pm
