Colindale Primary School Council 2024-25

The school council is an important way in which our children are directly involved in contributing to the management and running of various aspects of school. They can make a real contribution to decisions that relate to them. These involve giving their views on certain school policies, discussing ideas for school-wide events and suggesting ways of spending monies raised through our PSA (Parent Staff Association)

We have two representatives, from each class from year 1 to year 6. They are democratically elected by their classmates, who elect them as their voice on the council. They meet twice every half term with me (Mr Wild, Assistant Head). At the meetings they all get a turn to feedback ideas they have been given by their classmates and to write down, in their school council notebooks, new issues and questions to take back to their classes for discussion. This way all children’s views can be represented and taken into consideration in decision-making.

The School Councillors understand that they are seen as role models around the school and ensure that they conduct themselves in the way a role model should around school. They each have a badge so they can be identified and wear them with pride around the school.
