At Doubletrees we have a student council that sit on a regular basis with learner representatives from all of our classes.  Last week, our learners discussed safety, well-being and internet safety and used 'Big Mac' communication buttons and their voices to register their opinions and votes on each subject discussed at the meeting.

Our school council takes an active role within the school. They participate in staff interviews, they had the final say in our friendship/citizenship codes and have undertaken projects to improve their own school experiences. These include how we play and the resources we need, the food that we eat and how we feel about lunchtimes.  Pupil’s ideas, concerns and wishes will inform the direction that each School Council takes.

The school council elects new members at the start of every academic year and meet regularly. These are displayed around the school so all the learners know who they are.
