School Council
We value the ideas and opinions of our children. In order to provide a forum for all children to have a ‘voice’ we hold monthly Class Councils. All the children are trained at holding meetings, taking minutes and setting agendas.
Being a School Council rep is considered to be an important role in our school, thus the children are encouraged to think carefully before committing themselves to a year ‘in office’.
Hustings are held each new academic year in the Autumn term, where the children can explain to their class why they feel they would make a good School Council rep.
The children take part in a real experience of an election. To promote Citizenship and British Values the elections are carried out with voting slips and mini-booths to vote in their new school council representatives.
We would like to congratulate our newly voted in School Council for 2020 -2021:
