In response to the global coronavirus outbreak, we have implemented a strict visitor policy to safeguard the health and wellbeing of the whole school community. We ask that all non-essential visitors also stay away from the school at this time. If your visit is essential, please read our visitor policy before you visit the school.

School Council

StPeters16Day2 40The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, Article 12 gives young people:

The right to express an opinion, and to have that opinion taken into account, in any matter that affects them.

The aim of the School Council is to give pupils a voice. In order to do this it must:

  • Find out what students are thinking
  • Involve people
  • Take a positive approach
  • Communicate effectively

A successful School Council will:

  • Make sensible suggestions and requests
  • Raise awareness of issues in school,
  • Plan and organise activities and events
  • The School Council is not a place to discuss individuals.
