MEETING 2: October 2009
In the second meeting of the year, we discussed the formation of student panels covering different aspects of the school. We decided to run a recycling ,litter and chewing gum panel. Each one will be run by a teacher and pupils and will suggest ideas on how to improve on the excellent work that has already been done.
During this meeting, we were joined by Mr Smith and Mr Mullen. Mr Smith spoke to us about a new student panel that will be formed dealing with teaching and learning. Mr Mullen spoke to us on the new Skills for Life sessions that he has planned. These will replace DEAR time. There are three sections to this year's Skills for Life: spelling; skills and finally an activity which will focus on charity. He spoke to the councils about prizes that could be awarded to each form for the most amount raised for charity.
Finally we had a question and answer session with Mr Argent on any queries that we had.
MEETING 3: November 2009
In our third meeting we discussed the rebuilding of the school under the BSF programme. We decided that we would like to play a part with the architect on helping to re-design the school and if we could build on our work with the Sorrell Foundation.

Younger students welcome the excellent role models displayed by older students. This enables them to make an effective contribution to the school. Students are proud of their significant involvement in decision making at the school. This has encouraged their awareness of how to learn more effectively and consequently improve their work. Students' participation in sporting activities is high. They develop excellent relationships with the community, and take part in a range of performances attended by parents and other people from the area.
