Our school council members are elected in a democratic vote at the beginning of each academic year. Everybody in the class has a chance to put themselves forward for this important position. Each candidate needs to prepare a speech which includes information about what qualities they have that would make them a good school council representative and what ideas they have about making Acomb First an even better place to be. Everyone then gets a vote and the results are announced in an assembly.
Each school council representative wears a badge and is issued with a note book to write down any ideas or notes. The school council meet fortnightly to discuss a wide range of issues.
Congratulations to all the school councillors for this year!
