School

Council

What is the purpose of the School

Council?

The school council is a group of pupils

who are elected to represent the views

of all children to improve the school.

Each academic year, voting takes place

for the children who have been cam-

paigning to be elected for the School

Council. The school council is over-seen

by Mrs Becky Mollison-White but is led

by the children themselves.

There will be meetings held every half

term and the council will also be ex-

pected to lead a school assembly after

this meeting to share their plans with

the rest of the school.

those of other children.
