Our school council empowers pupils to make decisions about their school.

Class council representatives (one girl and one boy from each year group) are democratically elected through a secret class ballot, following class discussions about what qualities make a good council member.

During class SMSC sessions the council representatives make note of any issues / concerns / ideas to discuss at their meetings. The council meetings are held weekly with the school council link tutor. The minutes of the meeting are given to the class to share, and any relevant staff, to take further action where appropriate.

So far the council have:

• chosen the new school menu
• designed a reward system
• supported and discussed on-going school topics
• agreed sanctions for inappropriate behaviour & non completion of homework

Our School Council keep things fair!
