In my district of birth, there were two private secondaary schools. One was called Bright Academy S.S and the other was called GodMark S.S. They differed in the method of selecting student leaders.
At Bright Academy S.S., they used the appointive method and had one head prefect who was a relative to the school director and was chosen by the headteacher. After being appointed, this head prefect moved from class to class choosing a friend to assist him in managing school affairs. At God Mark S.S., they used the elective method.
They never had a head prefect but class monitors across all classes in the school who were voted into their positions by class members. These class monitors would report to the headmaster. At Bright Academy there were several student strikes resulting from poor student leadership.
