Senior students transitition

student
photo hi, my name is Anna. I will be helping with the year 7s as well as with the transitions from
year 6 to year7. The transition form primary to secondary school was one pf the hardest
part of going into a new school for me. Especially as Fortismere is so large. We as a team are
here to help and guide years 6s and 7s into this new school. We are here to make it as easy
as possible. A few things about me. I love musicals, you can come and talk to me about any
musical and even if I don’t know it I will be up for listing to what you have to say about it. I
love working with younger students. I love animals, having had a cat myself, I also love
music, I play the drums, a bit of trombone and sing. As well as this I love to write and make
up stories. I am an art student and I love art a lot. Writing and art are my escape.

My name is Lëa and I am part of the transitions leaders, supporting and guiding year
7s through theirs transitions into a new school. Our department also deals with year
9 GCSE options and making sure that students make good decisions for their future
exams. It’s important for students to do the subjects that they enjoy and are good at,
and also that new students starting at secondary school are comfortable in their
environment. I, as a leader, will attempt to help transitioning students be content and
comfortable, whatever the situation.

Senior student policies

Mimi Blake

Hello, my name is Mimi and I’m a part of the year 11 student leadership team
within which i help with policies which I think is an important area for students to
have a say in. I enjoy taking on leadership roles and I’m really looking forward to
being a part of the team. Outside of school I enjoy sport, I compete in both
running and swimming which I train for everyday. In school, the subjects I most
enjoy are English and art.

Omer Yumakci

My name is Omer Faruk Yumakci I focus on the policy side of the student
leadership team. Some of my hobbies are reading and some of my favourite
subject is P.E and P.R.E. I've got two older and two younger brothers who I really
enjoy spending time with. The reason I applied to be a student leader was
because of my aspiration to help others.
