Pupils Abigail Milburn, 15, and Louie Scott, 15, have taken on the roles following an election process in school.

Pupils then had to select up to eight candidates from the 23 applicants who they felt would represent all pupils within the school.

The school then held its annual head boy and head girl elections on Friday, June 21, with the voting process replicating the General Election experience with Year 10 pupils issued with voting slips.
