Student Leadership

Student Leadership

Student leadership is a cornerstone of the community at De La Salle College Jersey, empowering young men to serve as role models, voices for their peers, and ambassadors for the school’s core values. This tradition of leadership encourages students to develop confidence, responsibility, and a deep sense of civic duty. By taking on active roles within the college, student leaders help foster an inclusive, supportive environment where every individual can thrive academically, socially, and spiritually.

We are proud of our reputation of producing well-rounded, articulate and caring young men. Our Form and House groups, sporting opportunities, and creative arts pursuits all involve opportunities for the boys to work together and to assume leadership responsibilities.

Teaching & Learning Support

Our older students within the school are involved in reading schemes to support younger students, both in Year 7 and in our Primary school. We provide opportunities for students with specific subject specialisms in the sixth form to support teaching and learning in their free periods. Every student in Year 7 is teamed up with a Year 8 mentor as part of our transition support, and letters are addressed to our new starters before they join Year 7 to ensure students feel welcomed and understand that they have people to turn to for support and advice.

Student leadership in Liturgy

The Year 13 Leadership Team forms an essential pillar of the school’s liturgical year, anchoring the spiritual life of the college community. Throughout each term, these senior students play a highly visible and active role in leading full school assemblies, sharing messages of faith, reflection, and community unity. Their presence provides a powerful example to younger students, demonstrating how the school’s Lasallian values are lived out daily.

Beyond weekly assemblies, the team is instrumental in organizing and executing major liturgical celebrations across the academic year. From foundational feast days to seasonal services, these student leaders work tirelessly behind the scenes and at the altar to ensure each event is meaningful. Demonstrating a deeper commitment to the school’s founding mission, two members of the Year 13 Leadership Team sit directly on the Catholic and Lasallian Life Committee, actively shaping the spiritual direction and initiatives of De La Salle College.

Student Leadership Team

Our Head and Deputy Head boys lead the Student Leadership Team of Prefects who support the staff and Senior Management Team of the College with managing key events, speaking as role models of the College at Open Day or during our Prize Giving ceremonies, meeting and greeting both current and prospective parents, and remaining omnipresent within the College grounds for their younger peers to approach.

Testimonial

“

“It is very hard to explain what it truly is to be a Lasallian, unless you have shared in the journey and unless you have been part of the Community. But being a Lasallian is something I and my friends are extremely proud of, and we will continue to be Lasallian in everything that we do in the future.”

Cole Gueno

Head Boy

I currently study Maths, Further Maths, Physics and Chemistry at A level with hopes of studying Maths at University. In my spare time, I play rugby both for the island and Sussex County. I also enjoy playing Chess and going to the gym. I’ve been at DLS since Reception and throughout my time here I’ve created great memories from opportunities, such as the Ski Trip and Duke of Edinburgh. I look forward to being part of SLT and giving back to the College.

I am currently studying Biology, Design Technology and Photography, and I plan to study “Data Forensics & Computer Science” at University, aiming for a career in Data Forensics in the future. I started my studies at DLS in Year 6, moving up through to secondary, completing my GCSEs then moving on to my A-Levels. As Deputy Head Boy, I enjoy being given the chance to represent and assist the school that has supported me throughout my education. I’m extremely grateful and proud to be a part of the SLT and aim to support the college to the best of my ability.

I am studying Maths, Chemistry, and English Literature, with the aim of pursuing a career in Law. Having attended DLS since Reception, I have been fortunate to benefit from a wide range of opportunities to lead, represent others, and develop both personally and academically, such as participating in the ski trip (a particular favourite of mine), numerous sporting opportunities, and community initiatives. The College has played a significant role in shaping my character and ambitions, and I am proud to represent the student body.

Luc Figueira-Aird

Deputy Head Boy

I am studying Maths, Chemistry and Biology, aiming to pursue a career in medicine. At de la salle, I have had many ups and downs, from injuries on the ski trip, to winning trophies at Eisteddfods. I have been given many great opportunities to grow, due to events regarding public speaking with the Debate club or Medical classes for my future. I’m proud to be part of the Senior Leadership Team and to help represent De La Salle with my peers.
