At Ashburton College, we seek to develop the leadership skills and potential of our students. We create as many opportunities as possible for students to experience leadership in various forms, starting from Year 9. It is important to us that our leaders represent our diverse college, and it is vital that all students have the opportunity to lead in some way.
Our main formal leadership opportunity is our Prefects.
