School Council
This year, we have launched our brand-new Smart School Council.
We wanted to change the way in which our school council operates so that ALL children in school have a voice.
Here is a brief overview of what it looks like:
The ‘Communication Team’ were selected following an application process. This team is made up of pupils from year 5 and year 6 and they each have a key role in helping to ensure that the council runs smoothly. Part of their role is to create weekly class meetings which enable us to capture the voice of every pupil across school by asking a key question and having a respectful debate. Finally, we have our action teams. Any child in school can form an action team for any reason. They bring their ideas to the communication team and with the support of a nominated adult, they run their project in order to help to improve our school community.
During each meeting, our newsletter team will add key messages and updates to our weekly school newsletter. We also have a ‘progress board’ in school which will help us to keep track of all of our action teams and celebrate our successes.
