Pupil leadership is the heartbeat of our school. Our children have a voice and develop their understanding of democracy through our School Council.
The School Council is made up of 12 children from Y6 – Y2. They meet every Friday afternoon to discuss key issues in school, charity work, safety and more. The Council elects a Chair each year, as voting on a ‘School Council Award’ winner every week – this is given out in assembly with the Value Awards and worth 20 House Points!

School Council Award
Every week at our School Council meeting, the group puts forward names for children they feel deserves to win the coveted ‘School Council Award’ and why. The group then debates and votes on a winner. The award is given for showcasing one our school values in exceptional fashion and the winner receives 20 House Points!
Houses of Parliament Experience
Every year our School Council visits the Houses of Parliament, watches a debate live and meets our local MP (as well as sightseeing and exploring our capital city!). Almost all of the cost of this trip is paid for by school.
Waterton Pupil Parliament
The Waterton Pupil Parliament meets every half-term, with representatives from each school meeting in a central location to discuss and debate key issues. The group also elects a Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister each year. In 2021-22, the Prime Minister was Ethan from Churchfield!
