School Council is led by the Head Boy and Girl, with the assistance of the Head who takes notes. Following discussions held in PSHE/form tutor time, the School Council representatives put forward ideas and discuss matters of importance to the children at School Council. Following meetings, a resume of all the matters discussed is posted on classroom notice boards and circulated to staff.
