I am delighted by the enthusiasm demonstrated in several emails I have
received over the last 24 hours.
However, we hope to meet your concerns without expanding the Executive
Committee further, if it gets too big it becomes unwieldy and less
effective. The White House is served by one elected President and one
Vice President for 350 million people - they then appoint staff members
with key skills, in BD there will be support committees of students who are
selected by Excom and the teacher mentor rather than elected by the whole student community. For example, the SSC will not organise any events to clash with MUN and the Secretary General will have the full support of the SSC in organising MUN next year. The Secretary General will be able to attend EXCOM meetings in the run up to the events, brief us on progress and ask for specific support with specific tasks. Everybody will help at that time and titles are not important - only to get the work done.
There are two Communication Officers, who will communicate the message throughout the school.
In practical terms, each Excom Officer will have the power to request that the Teacher Mentor set up an action team of students working with them. They can nominate students who if the EXcom agree and the teacher mentor concurs will become a team for say, Communications, Finance, House, CAS etc
As the Excom will be elected only within Grade X1, we may have a special meeting of Gr X1 students one day this week or we may include them in the whole school assembly -but there may be too many for that - I have to wait and see how many candidates we have -
it's a question of how much time we would have the whole school listening to speeches when only Gr X1 can actually vote for Excom.
Students who have special skills but do not run for election can approach the Excom or me to be included in the action team working with any officer -after the election! Regarding voting I will discuss the practicalities with Mr Gardner, to enable a smooth election without disrupting teaching and learning but most likely for Friday 3rd February.
