School Council
Our School Council represents the views of all our pupils. It gives children the opportunity to make their voices heard and feel part of the whole school community. Our School Council will meet on a regular basis to help with the growth and development of our school.
School Council Year 2023-24
Here you can find information and updates from this academic year's School Council meetings. We have a skilled group of pupils representing their form groups who were democratically elected by their classmates.
The School Council have in turn elected a Chairperson, Vice-Chairperson, Treasurer and Secretary.
The responsibilities, skills and talents required for these roles and for all members of the school council were discussed.
The School Council also considered how these are linked to a range of job roles and agreed that the experience of being a School Council member will bring a wealth of knowledge for their future careers and preparing for adulthood in general.
Key Rules agreed by the School Council
- Be responsible at all times
- Let others have their turn to talk
