STUDENT VOICE

           AIMS

The aims of the Student Voice are to provide the students with a platform to express their opinions  about school life and contribute to school spirit and community welfare. It also helps all students to share their ideas and concerns to the wider school community.

                 ELECTIONS

Tutors encourage students to volunteer as candidates for an election to take place within the first weeks of September each year. Tutors encourage and help candidates to write a speech which includes:-

• reasons why they would make a good Student Voice Rep
• what issues are important to them at school

After speeches, ballot papers are provided and voting takes place in tutor time. Tutors fill in a Returns form and deliver their results to Mrs Keily-Theobald. Winning candidates have their photograph taken and a copy attached to the tutor Student Voice notice board. Winning candidates also receive a certificate.

The elected representatives for 2019.20 are displayed in the school Reception area. 

Student Voice meetings take place during Lesson 1, every other Friday.
