St. John's School Council
2024-25
Who We Are
Our School Council is made up of 12 pupils from Year 3 - Year 6. We were elected by our peers to represent them in school, with a view to positive change.
New school council members are elected at the start of each school year by pupils nominating themselves, writing and delivering an election speech, and then a whole school ballot decides on the best candidates for the job.
What We Do
We meet to discuss matters around school and contribute to pupil voice at St. John's. We share ideas and decisions from our School Council meetings with our classes, lead assemblies and meet with staff, governors, and other interested parties.
We help to make decisions about how our school is run and take on projects that support the learning and development of all of our peers. We also organise charity events, represent our school at outside events and ensure our school is the best that it can be!
Decisions made within our School Council can, and do, have a real impact in school.
