School Council

Welcome to our School Council

Our School Council are made up of two representatives from years 2 to 6 and supported by Miss Beckett. They are very proactive and meet every half-term. 

The British value of democracy is fundamental to life at Lady Bay, which is why each year group elect their representative at the start of September. The voting process is completed in a fair and democratic way, often through an anonymous method. Candidates are encouraged to deliver a short speech outlining why they wish to represent their year group. 

A summary of Pupil Parliament

Our year 6 School Councillors represented Lady Bay brilliantly at the Pupil Parliament meeting held at County Hall. The afternoon started with learning about the structure of our government. The leader of the meeting outlined the major parties, before sharing the differences between the House of Lords and the House of Commons. With a good understanding of our government, the Pupil Parliament debated if children should be allowed to take phones to school. Our representatives shared fantastic points about the security aspect of mobile phones, in terms of negatively using them in school and positively allowing family members to check their location. Finally, in a division lobby activity, the representatives cast their vote as to whether phones should be allowed.
