School Council

Who We Are

Our School Council is made up of pupils who are elected to represent the views of all pupils and to improve their school.

What We Do

Each year, every class will elect 2 representatives a boy and a girl to be members of the School Council.

The council will then meet to elect officers such as:

 

  • Chair
  • Secretary
  • Treasurer

 

We are a good School Council because we listen to and represent the views of our class and we get things done. We learn how to present an argument and bring about change to improve the school.

 

  • We have regular meetings – every Tuesday morning
  • We regularly report back to our class and collect their and suggestions
  • We look at democracy in action when we visit City Hall.

Make A Difference

We don’t just talk we get things done.

 

  • We think of others and run successful fund raising campaigns for charities including: Sport Relief; Children in Need and Comic Relief.
  • In recent years, The School Council entered the Speaker’s School Council Award, the national competition Lights, Camera, Parliament which was based on law making in the UK and has arranged for guest speakers to learn about democracy and government including our local MP, Right Honourable Iain Duncan Smith. We are always looking at ways to represent our school in the wider world.
  • We successfully created and run a healthy tuckshop every Friday break time.
