STUDENT LEADERSHIP FRAMEWORK
In GSS, we adopt The Leadership Challenge (TLC) Model, created by best-selling authors James Kouzes and Barry Posner to frame our training programmes.
The 5 practices of exemplary leadership under TLC are:
• Model the way
• Inspire a shared vision
• Challenge the process
• Enable others to act
• Encourage the heart
Student Leaders will have the opportunity to internalise these 5 practices through various training workshops and school platforms.
These include:
Trainings & workshops
Weekly Dialogue & Forum, Effective Communication Workshops, Student leadership Camp, Overseas Service Learning Internationalisation Programme.

The Student Leadership Committee is led by Miss Ang Lip Eng Penny as Head of Department of Physical Education / CCA.
OUR TEACHERS
VISION AND PHILOSOPHY
In GSS, we believe every
student is a potential leader and we aim to develop all students to be
Positive
Youths of Today and Inspiring Leaders of
tomorrow. We view leadership not as a rank or
a position; rather, leadership
is a set of essential skills
that students need to be equipped with for
an ever-changing world.
LEADERSHIP POSITIONS
The Student Leadership
Programme in GSS is organised as a 2-tier training programme that
includes a general Self-leadership development for the
entire student cohort and a role- based
Team Leadership and Thought Leadership development for the
4 different student leadership roles:
- CCA Leaders
- House Leaders
- Student Councillors
