Children take their School Council roles extremely seriously! They hold a 'cabinet' meeting on Friday afternoons with Mrs Day
our super HLTA to discuss any new ideas they may have. These meetings also give councillors the opportunity to raise any School Council concerns they have encountered and to discuss feedback from other children in school.
Our new School Council has just been formed so watch this space for ideas and topics that they will be discussing this year!
Every October, we hold a 'general election' to recruit new school council members, as Y6 councillors leave us at the end of the previous summer term. There's an official ballot box in school for nominations and voting, and our Vice Chair of Governors, Cllr Emmas-Williams, counts the votes and announces the elected members to children, staff and parents.
It's not easy to get elected! Candidates prepare presentations and speeches to convince their year-group that they're truly the right person to represent them in School Council meetings.
