Pupil Council Elections
At Belmore, we believe that the students should have the opportunity to voice their opinions about things that happen in school.
To ensure they are able to do this, we run a pupil council for students from years 3 to year 6 which is run by the year 6 head boy and head girl supported by their deputies.
This month we invited students in years 3,4 and 5 to run for our school council and held year group elections in the hall. Just like local elections, students went into the hall to their designated table to receive their ballet paper, go into a booth to make their selection then posted it into the ballot box.
The children all enjoyed the democratic experience of making their own decision about who they wanted to represent them in the school and our winning candidates were announced during assembly.
Council meetings have begun and they will soon be holding consultations with their year groups so everyone can be heard.
