At Newfield Primary we aim to help children and young people to have a greater say over matters that affect their school and wider lives.

Each year, every class will elect two representatives to be members of the school council. Who are elected to represent the views of all pupils and to improve their school.

To make our school council effective, we aim to:

• have regular meetings
• train and encourage good communication between representatives and their classes
• encourage and organise smaller groups (subcommittees) working on specific events or issues
