Minutes from recent School Council Meetings
The children’s school council – representatives of two councillors from each class, Head girl and Head boy, has met recently to discuss our policies on educational school visits and Homework. A précis of the points raised can be found below. Please remember, these are children’s opinions – not necessarily changes that are appropriate for us to make, although some are very thought provoking! Many thanks for your continued interest.
Educational Visits
Maximum charge should be £7:00
Each class to have 3 trips a year.
Many advantages to school trips.
People who misbehave at school should not come on trips.
Would like to take more trips on trains.
Would like to listen to the radio on the bus.
Would like a whole school trip.

Homework
Generally, some children in the younger classes didn’t want to do the homework.
Doing homework gives the children chance to learn more.
The work is often challenging.
Would like alternative subjects.
Would like games to play.
Would like a homework club.
Would like writing stories for homework.
Would like awards / points for handing homework in early.
