Prefect Application Essay

Improved Essays
Dear Ms Ridgway,

I am writing with regards to my application for the role of head girl. I consider this to be an important position of responsibility and respectability. It would be an honour for me to carry out this role and fulfil all its duties and commitments to the best of my abilities.

I feel that the role of a head girl is perfectly suited to me. This position would allow me to give something back to the school after four years of being guided. This would give me an opportunity to help out pupils from the school and the young students starting their important last two years. In return, the experience gained would be infinite. It would allow me to become a mature, responsible person carrying out important duties. It would be a privilege to be representing the pupils in the school and working with the staff.

I believe I am the ideal candidate. I am punctual with an attendance record of 96.8% which marks me out as a reliable candidate who would not let the school down. This role would allow me to fit in into the Pleckgate school system and become a senior part of this large school which would make me proud for years to come. This would build my self-esteem immensely. My annual school reports have always been very positive with encouraging comments from my teachers.

I am smart in appearance, sociable and well-respected by my teachers and peers. I interact with lots of people in different years each day, so I feel that if I became a prefect I would be approachable to pupils from year groups younger than me and I always try to have a friendly smile on my face. I would work well with other prefects, as I have always been a keen team worker. In Year 9, a few other pupils and I were given the opportunity to go out of school and take part in The BAE Systems Make It Enterprising Challenge. At this event, I learnt to use my team-building skills and it helped me to build my

    In the past four years, I have had many experiences with family, friends and an extreme amount of clubs, activities, and home life occasions I am involved in. But in all honesty sports have taught me a lot about people, life and even myself. I have been a part of many teams in my lifetime and played several abstract sports, but at Summit Academy High School the sports are very unique. There are mixed attitudes towards the teams, players and coaches that you would not see at any other school. But I like to call them obstacles and challenges. As an athlete, I have never been afraid of a challenge. I have always been able to go at my problems head-on; this is also something I learned from Summit Academy sports and will definitely help in my next step into the real world and in the far future.…
