School Council
As a Rights Respecting School, we believe that every child has the right to have a say in all matters that affect them and their views taken seriously.
At Woodlands School the voice of our students is very important. We have a group of School Council members that meet regularly to discuss matters around school. Natalie Cairns leads the meetings.
The School Council is made up of at least one representative from each key stage. Their aim is to represent all pupils in the school with a view to positive change. They help everyone to make decisions to make the school better and also help to look after the school and the equipment in it.
We have a notice board in school so that all staff and pupils know who the school council members are and any important information.
Each class throughout school share the minutes of the meetings and they pass back new ideas, concerns, and school matters to the Council.
New school council members are elected at the start of each school year by nominating themselves, creating an election video and then a whole school vote decides on the best candidates for the job. Current members also have the opportunity to stay members if they wish.
Our school council representatives are:
- Ben
- Ellen
- Esmae F
- Esmae L
- Harry
- Jax
- Jayden
