School Council
Who are the school council?
At Staplehurst Primary School our School Councillors have been elected by their peers. This helps children learn about elections and democracy and shows the importance placed on pupil voice at Staplehurst Primary School.
What Do We Do?
Members of the Council take part in discussions and votes and also feedback any relevant information to their class. They may be requested to ask their class for ideas or take class votes relating to discussions by the Council.
Members meet regularly with MrsForeman to discuss ways in which they feel they can influence the school for the better. This may be ideas to improve playtimes, after school clubs, lessons or what charities they want to support through fund-raising activities.
