School Council

All of the classes, from Year 1 upwards, vote for one School Council representative. We meet half termly to discuss important issues about our school. Our classes think of ideas to discuss and we add them to the agenda together with topics which the staff and the children in the school want us to talk about. After the meetings we tell our classes what happened and any decisions we made. We also ask them to talk about what we have told them and we report this back to the next School Council meeting. In assembly, we discuss what has happened at our meeting.

The children report that they really enjoy being School Councillors because it helps them:

• learn to take part in discussions
• become better listeners
• help solve problems
• make the school better
• become more confident

Digital Leaders

There are Digital Leaders in every class. They are chosen by the class teacher and the computing subject leader to assist, model and lead the use of technology around the school. They are responsible for ensuring that technology is used safely and will show children the correct way to use technology.

Eco Council

The Eco council meet each half term to discuss ways to decrease the use of electricity, waste and improving green spaces around the school. The children have used litter pickers to clear areas of plastic. They have created posters reminding that lights should be turned off after use. They have begun work on improving the green spaces.
