Pupil Representation within the School

Pupils are aware of the healthier menus in the canteen and are proud of the fact that the student council played an important role in bringing about the changes. Ofsted 2008

The Pupil Council was set up in 1997 to give pupils the opportunity to direct the school in certain areas, with each class electing, at the start of the school year, a boy and a girl to represent them.

The Council meets every two weeks. Topics covered include

  • playgrounds
  • toilets and other school facilities
  • the school's good cause for the year
  • fund-raising activities.

The Pupil Council benefits by being able to use interest-free loans from the PTA to finance recreational and environmental schemes which they design.
