"Students grow as confident, courteous and considerate young people whose contribution to school life is extensive, as demonstrated by the highly developed and influential school councils."

                                                 Ofsted  2008

 

The School Council at Chew Valley is based on the Learning to Lead Initiative:

 

It involves the whole school community from the beginning

 

Is based on self-election

 

Operates through self-managing teams

 

Involves training every council member in the skills needed to work together independently

 

The teams were formed following an online survey where all students were asked their views on the school and we had a morning off timetable to put ideas together on what could be done in relation to key areas.

 

Each term there is a school Council Forum where the whole council gets together and discusses issues that involve all members. There is a newsletter that comes out once a term and weekly team meeting.
