What is the School Council?

The School Council is the body, made up of children from each class, english and bilingual, that meets regularly to discuss any subject raised by any pupil in the school. This can be anything from curriculum questions, proposals for equipment or school trips, personal issues or an exciting plan for the playground or building. The School Council's meetings are attended by a member of WIX staff and a member of the governing body, and they have a real influence on how our school works!

The School Council members are elected by their own classmates to represent the views of all the pupils. It is a place for discussion and decision-making to improve the school, where everyone's views are valued.

Why do we have a School Council?

To create a feeling of belonging, encourage listening to others and develop self-confidence
To help children develop responsible attitudes
To improve behaviour
To give children hands-on experience of areas within the National Curriculum, including PHSE and Citizenship

When does the School Council meet?

Usually twice every half term, on a Wednesday, for 30 minutes. Meetings are held in the dining hall.

How can pupils raise an issue?

Tell your class representatives. Your point will be raised at the next meeting, or alternatively tell your class teacher, who can pass on any points you have raised to school leaders.
