SCHOOL COUNCIL
2012 - 2013
What is a School Council?
A School Council is a group of students who are elected to represent the views of all pupils and to improve their school.
"School Council" means all kinds of school-based groups run by students, including student forums and youth parliaments.
There are 12 School Councillors here at Stanstead, 2 representatives from Years 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. We meet every week to discuss anything we believe is important to our school. We have suggestion boxes in each class and these are emptied each week. Sometimes we are asked by the Head Teacher to undertake specific jobs.
We feed back to all pupils during school assemblies and each class representative feeds back to their own class after each meeting.
Recently we visited the Council House and took part in the parliamentary event where school councils from various schools across the city meet and had a debate about the community and amenities available to young children.
During our visit to the Council House last year we helps to write a children's charter, which will be in place across the City of Nottingham very soon.
