Student Forum

Our Student Forum is extremely important to our School.  We value each and every student and we believe that they should be able to have their opinion heard on what happens within our School.  Our Student Forum has influenced many decisions within our School including the facilities within our new building.

 

What is the Student Forum?

The Student Forum is a group of students that get together and discuss school matters.  This is the students’ opportunity to have their say and talk about what they would like to see change, stay the same or any other ideas that they may have regarding school life.

 

Who Takes Part?

The whole school is involved in Student Forum, as every student has the right to voice their ideas, thoughts and opinions.  However only one student from each tutor group, attends the meetings.  These students are called the Tutor Student Forum Representatives.  Before a meeting it is the representative’s duty to discuss any issues or ideas that their tutor group have.  These points are then discussed further in the Student Forum meetings.

 

When do Student Forum Meet?

Student Forum meetings take place every 2 months.  This is in order that the representatives have enough time to talk to their Tutor Group to obtain plenty of information to take to their meeting.
