Article 12

Every child has the right to say what they think in all matters affecting them, and have their views taken seriously.

Spires' Pupil Council is a group of children elected by their fellow pupils to represent their opinions and raise issues with Mrs Bell (Principal) and other adults within our school. The Pupil Council can also take forward projects on behalf of the pupils and represent pupil involvement in all aspects of school development in general.

To be effective, our school council must:

• Represent all pupils and include as many people as possible;
• Take time to listen to all pupils and communicate their views;
• Feed back to pupils about what happened about their views;
• Make things happen – or explain why they can’t!
