At St Mark’s, we are proud to have an active and engaged School Council, with representatives elected from every class. Each year, children are given the opportunity to present to their classmates, explaining why they would like to take on the role of class councillor.  They vote democratically using a secret ballot box and each child votes for one councillor and one vice councillor.  

As a school, we value the thoughts, ideas and opinions of all our children and the School Council is a great way of ensuring that pupil voice is heard and valued.  Councillors regularly gather feedback from their classmates, contribute ideas to meeting agendas and work together to find ways to improve our school. They also take an active role in organising events and activities throughout the year.

The School Council also leads our Eco-Schools projects, working to make St Mark’s a greener and more environmentally friendly place. As Eco Champions, they encourage the whole school community to take action and make a positive difference to the world around us.
