Our School Council Vision

All voices are equal.  

Our School Council Aims

Whilst living out the Christian values of love, courage, hope and service, as well as British values, our School Council works as a team to give every child the opportunity to have a voice. We believe that all voices are equal. Adults and children collaborate to ensure that St Margaret’s CE Junior School is a happy, healthy, safe and enriching learning environment where children are listened to and can share their thoughts and ideas to implement change to make our school the best it can be: a place where everyone in the school family can flourish.

Our message to all the children at St Margaret’s is:

We represent the voices of every child and promise to consider and value all suggestions and ideas with respect and integrity. We are proud to shine as your School Council representatives and are ready to show you how voices can make positive changes.

Each class elects two representatives for the School Council at the beginning of the school year. One representative attends meetings for the first half of the school year and the second representative attends meetings during the second half of the year.

Members of the School Council bring suggestions of ways to improve school to the meetings. They are also asked to represent the school at various functions and recently were asked to interview candidates for a teaching position at our school. They do a great job and certainly take the role very seriously.
