Our School Council is a democratically elected group of children from Year 1 to 6 who are actively involved in the school’s development. Any children in years 1 to 6 who want to can stand to be a School Councillor.

The children have to make a presentation to their class about why they would be good at the job, and then the children get to vote.

Those who are elected then have the role of presenting different information and activities at the monthly meeting where the School Council discuss important issues relating to events that are organised in the school, agreeing which charities we will sponsor through the year and presenting suggestions from their classes for school improvements.

Over recent years, the School Council introduced a new whole school behaviour ladder; consulted on our RSHE curriculum; led a whole school initiative to donate gifts for Christmas appeals (including Samaritans and the V2 Radio Appeal) and have raised money for our school charities, these have included The Snowdrop Trust, Tyler’s Trust, Stone Pillow and Brent Lodge.

In May, 2026, the School Council will organise the school’s fundraising event and consider how we can play a part in the Year of Reading.

This academic year, the School Council plan to further improve the school by listening to the views and opinions of their peers.

Our School Council members for 2026-2027 are:

Year 1 Nathan Joseph
Year 2 Rory Isabelle
Year 3 Olivia Poppy
Year 4 Teddy Billy
Year 5 Polina Nakita
Year 6 Daniel and Isabelle Elliot

With the support of this year’s School Council, pupils voted to support the Stone Pillow.  The charity supports homeless people within our local community.

During the year, we had a visit from Flo who spent time explaining the positive impact the charity has on our community.

Aims for 2026 – 2027:

  • Listen to our pupils’ voices on what is good about the school and what can improve it further,
  • Consider how we can further improve reading opportunities.
  • Choose our School Charity,
  • Organise a sponsored event,
  • Review behaviour and health and safety,
  • Create a clear view on what learning looks like for our pupils.
