The Study’s School Council provides the girls with an opportunity to feel part of the decision making process at the school, and for them to impact on the improvement of school life for everyone. The Council gives them the confidence that they will be listened to, and that their ideas may be put into action.
Each term, one member of each form is elected to be the class representative to the School Council, and meetings take place regularly at both Houses with a member of staff. At the meetings, the reps discuss their class’s ideas, concerns and suggestions in an open and informal way with a member of staff. After the meetings they report back to their class the decisions which have been made.
Recently the girls have provided ideas for the School Development Plan. They have made their own rules for the playground at both Houses and chosen new playground equipment.
