School Council

Here at St John Fisher our student council is currently made up of representatives of Year 5 and 6 pupils. The pupils applied for the positions in the Autumn Term and were voted into power by their peers.

Each class  in our school has its own representative from Reception to year 6. The students meet at least once a month with Mr Kenny to discuss ways to help the school and organise different pupil events.

After the meetings, pupils go to each class to pass on what was discussed in the meeting, and the classes can put questions and ideas forward to their representatives to bring to further sessions.

So far this year, the School Council has focused on pupil voice and spent a number of meetings discussing how to improve school life for children and adults. They have worked on improving our carbon footprint and ensured our playground environment has bother general waste and recycling bins for everyone to use. 

The School Councils next steps are to create an action plan for Spring Term actions, which will be shared on our website very soon!
