Our Parliament

πŸ‘₯ Who Is Part of Our School Parliament?

Our School Parliament is made up of dedicated pupils who are elected to represent the voices of their classmates.

Every September, each class takes part in a democratic vote. Children have the opportunity to stand for election and share why they would make a great representative. Each class then votes for two Members of Parliament to represent them.

These elected members listen to their classmates, share their ideas, and work together to make our school the best it can be.

🌟 The Aims of Our School Parliament

Our School Parliament is where ideas come to life and voices are heard!

We aim to:

  • πŸ’‘ Spark creative ideas that make our school even better

  • πŸ“ Set a clear agenda that reflects what pupils really care about

  • πŸ“’ Keep everyone informed with meeting minutes open to all

  • 🎯 Turn great ideas into action plans

πŸ› What Does Our School Parliament Do?

Our School Parliament meets regularly with the Headteacher to shape the future of our school. Together, we discuss exciting upcoming events and tackle important issues.

From improving school lunches and promoting positive behaviour to organising fun fund-raising events, no idea is too big or too small!

Once decisions are made, our Members of Parliament take the lead β€” turning plans into action and making things happen. They don’t just talk about change… they create it.

Our School Parliament is more than just meetings β€” it’s about leadership, teamwork, responsibility, and making a difference. πŸš€
