The children hope school council is effective; representing the views of all children and getting things done. We:

• Communicate with Governors

• Discuss important issues as directed from the head teacher

• Work on in-school issues

• Do surveys

• Help with funding raising

• Take an active role in keeping the school spit spot.

• Feedback what is discussed to children in  our classes

• Bring class views to future meetings

• Provide background work for things the school needs e.g. The bins outside, tablecloths for Aspens
