Student Voice and School Parliament

At The Hammond, we believe that every student should have the opportunity to shape the community to which they belong.

Student voice is at the heart of school life, and we are committed to ensuring that our students are listened to, respected and actively involved in decisions that influence their education and wider school experience. Leadership is not reserved for a select few – it is something we encourage all students to develop through service, collaboration, creativity and initiative.
