Students’ Union

The Students’ Union at EKC Sheppey College organises a wide range of exciting trips and events, and is here to represent you.

What is the Students' Union?

The Students’ Union (SU) is a group of students dedicated to representing your voice, organising events, and running campaigns to enhance College life.

Every student automatically becomes a member of the SU when they join us, giving you the opportunity to get involved, share your ideas, and help shape student experiences.

The SU is led by the Students’ Union President, Libby, who works closely with the Student Experience Officer, Pasha, to support clubs, societies, and enrichment activities across the College.

Libby Gillett

Libby is your Students’ Union President, and is passionate about strengthening support for students with learning differences, including autism and anxiety, to ensure everyone thrives at College.

While studying Early Years, Libby has loved how College has enabled her to become more social with a range of opportunities.

She is enthusiastic about planning the upcoming terms, filled with exciting trips and events.

Libby’s primary goals are to make sure all students are heard, to continuously improve the student experience, and to introduce new opportunities for students to enjoy College life.
