THE head pupil team at North Berwick High School for the upcoming year has been selected.

Jack Agarwala and Sophie Hetherington, both 16, were named head pupils for the next school year.

Eliz Cetingoz, 17, Jack Hamilton, 16, and Luke Smith, 16, were all named depute head pupils.

They succeed former head pupils Lucy Smith and Jennifer Price and former depute head pupils Itske Hooftman, Savannah Harper and Angus Mather.

The quintet went through a rigorous selection process, including pledge videos, votes by staff and fellow S6 pupils, and an interview with Lara Neri, depute headteacher, and the incoming headteacher Michelle Moore.

Mrs Neri said: “North Berwick High School is delighted to announce the appointment of our new head pupil team.

“We are really looking forward to working with them and they have some excellent ideas about how to drive forward new initiatives in our school.”
