School Council
The School Council is a group of children who represent their classes on a council which has the opportunity to discuss any part of life in and around school.
There are two members; a boy and a girl; from each of the classes from Year 2 to Year 6. The members are elected by their class for a period of 1 year. A member of the senior management team supports the council and relays the outcome of their meeting to staff.
The members of the council discuss their meetings with their class and listen to requests from their class. There is a worry box in all classes.
The school council also discusses the results of meetings and changes or concerns with the pupils at some school assemblies.
