In the context of schools, a prefect is a student who has been given certain responsibilities in the school, similar to the responsibilities given to a hall monitor or safety patrol members. The Head Prefect may also be the School Captain. It helps younger students’ transition into school life, improves mentoring skills and improves public speaking skills. The prefect meets a greater number of students and teachers and are generally respected by students and teachers. Students learn about being in a position of power and responsibility. Being a school prefect is a great opportunity to master leadership which you will need even in your adulthood. In fact, research shows that many successful people in the world today held positions of responsibility while still at school. It is actually good for your CV. Prefects have advantages over other ordinary students. They must be cooperative, helpful, well-mannered, trustworthy and responsible. They should also play leadership qualities like confidence, initiative and problem-solving skills and must be willing to take on extra responsibilities.
