Here in SS Peter and Paul, we have a wonderful School Council. Each class has two representatives, chosen in a class elections, who attend meetings to discuss matters important to the children. They are an important link between the staff and their peers. Councillors lead a class discussion and bring any ideas or concerns to the Council meetings to see what can be done.

Children in KS1 & KS2 took part in a democratic election to decide on who would represent their class in the student school council. (Just like the real Members of Parliament!)

We held a secret ballot where the children voted for a girl and a boy from their class who they felt were the best candidates.

At the end of the day, the votes were counted and the children with the majority of the votes were declared.

The main aim of the School Council is to help to make our school an even better place for the children and to give us an opportunity to have our opinions and ideas heard. The school council will meet on a regular basis.
