The School Council has an extremely important role and pupil voices are highly valued at The Shrubbery.


Article 12 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) says that children and young people should have a say in decisions that affect their lives.  Our school council provides a meaningful way in which pupils can voice their opinions and have their views taken into account in decisions which impact upon them.

 

What is a school council?

A school council is a formal group of pupils within a school who are elected by their peers to represent them and their views.


What does a school councillor do?

A school councillor attends school council meetings and takes part in discussions. They help us:


  • To improve the school according to our pupil's point of view.
  • Make sure our pupils have a platform to voice their opinions.
  • To discuss and raise issues.
  • It is an important and useful way that we can provide leadership and development opportunities for our pupils.
