STMP has ‘School Faith Council.’ This group of children had to apply for their role and were voted in through an election by their classmates. Real experience of the election process!
The group meets regularly with Dita, the Nursery teacher, and takes action on behalf of the pupil body, speaking to their peers and finding out their views.
They are very diligent! They have been successful in asking the Headteacher for money to buy more playground equipment and now the children have space-hoppers which they love. They have also redrafted our school prayer.
Our children love to talk about the school. They spoke to the Governors Vision Impact Committee recently.
