School Council and Pupil Leadership

We encourage our children to take opportunities for leadership across the school.  Children can join the school council, some of our children are buddies, others have a focus on sustainability and remind us how to look after the environment. We also encourage children to read with their peers across the school.  

Welcome to our School Council

Our School Council has representatives from Year One to Year Six. Our EYFS children are also involved by sharing their views and ideas with a specially elected councillor from Year Six. All children play an important role in helping to make decisions in our school about our curriculum, special events, visitors, charity work and new equipment and resources that we may need.

We use the Smart School Council resources to ensure that every child gets a voice and coordinate our meetings. Our School council work with the children in their classes on a regular basis to look at a wide variety of issues, and then to report back to our Head Teacher on things they would like to develop. Miss Forsyth has responsibility for the School Council, she meets with the communication team fortnightly then councillors hold a class meeting every two weeks.

The School Council gives our children a voice in deciding how our school runs, and how we want to develop it in the future. Each year the children themselves elect a new School Council through a democratic voting system. We believe that pupil voice is an extremely important part of the day to day running of our school.
