School Council
Weston Green’s School Council includes pupils from Years 1 to 6 who have been elected by their classmates to represent the views of all pupils and to help improve the school. Pupils who want to be considered for the role of councillor each prepare a short election speech that they deliver to their class. Following their speech, classmates are given the opportunity to ask questions to the candidates.
Regular meetings are held to investigate ways to achieve the School Council’s aims for improving the school and getting involved in the local community.
Weston Green's School Council elected in 2018-2019 completed a very successful term of office. Their achievements included:
- Creating a Quiet Courtyard using previously unused space within the school, with plants, artwork and beanbags, where pupils can relax during breaktimes
- Organising a movie night, raising £600 towards a mural for the Quiet Courtyard
- Working closely with their peers and the Headteacher to decide on new playground marking designs, funded by the Weston Green School Parents' Association
- Implementing a new pencil case policy in Key Stage 2
- Creating a school prayer in conjunction with peers and the Senior Leadership Team of school staff, which is now used regularly by pupils
