Creating Lifelong Learning Opportunities for Everyone

At Old Stratford Primary we are proud to have pupil representatives that take part in Class and School Council meetings.  These councils are in place so that pupils have a voice and are involved in decisions about the school that affect them.  Through Class Council all pupils have the opportunity to raise issues, share ideas and take part in discussions that involve all of their classmates in reaching a democratic solution.  Wider issues that arise at Class Council are discussed further at School Council, thus ensuring that as many pupil voices as possible are heard. 

Our School Council is represented by two children from each class, voted in by their peers during an election. The School Council meet with Mrs van Lelyveld at least twice every half term and are also responsible for holding regular Class Council meetings.

Recently our School Council has:

•  Raised money to buy new books for each classes book corner
•  As part of our charitable work School Council made up Christmas hampers for elderly residents in our local community
•  Led several assemblies at school to share our fundraising ideas and what School Council have been up to
•  Organised a ‘mufti day’ to raise money for new Old Stratford sporting uniforms

 Look out for lots more news coming soon on our noticeboard!
