Lizzie Nairn

Student Trustee

What attracted you to become a Student Trustee?

In 2025-26 I was a student representative for HISA and I enjoyed representing other students and helping them to have a better experience within their education. I appreciate having the chance to influence decisions that drive positive change and contribute to an inclusive and supportive environment for all students.

 

Briefly tell us about your course

In September, I will begin studying Light Vehicle Maintenance. This course will provide me with a strong foundation in technical knowledge, problem-solving, and analytical thinking, while also helping me develop practical skills, group working and a disciplined approach to learning.

 

What is your fondest memory of being a student?

One of my favourite memories as a student was during when we listened to a choir singing carols and drank hot chocolate, with some members of staff dressing up as Santa. It gave a real sense of community!

 

What inspires and/or motivates you?

I’m motivated by being able to make a difference to people’s experience of education. I’m grateful for opportunities to meet people who help me to learn and grow as a person.

 

What do you hope to bring to the Trustee Board?

Being a neurodiverse student, I hope to bring a different perspective to the Board and help others by representing their views and experiences of being neurodiverse in an educational environment.
