How does YOUR voice get heard? Remember … • If you have an idea or suggestion and would like to bring it to school council you must speak to your form reps. • They will take it to the house council to be discussed and then forward it to the school council. • Your house captain will then feed back what has been discussed and keep you up-to-date.
Student Voice ‘make your words speak louder’.
