Pupil Voice is IMPORTANT!

Today all of the children in Chatelherault met with their chosen Pupil Voice Group. This is a very important job and allows the children to share their opinions and for the adults in school and the community to take their views seriously (Article 12).

Each group has chosen a Rights Respecting Schools representative. The representative will help to ensure that rights is discussed as part of the agenda at each meeting and will feedback the work of the groups at our meetings.

We can’t wait to meet the team and will share their photo and all of the wonderful work of the Pupil Groups soon!

Chatelherault Primary Pupil Groups

In Chatelherault Primary school, all pupils are encouraged to participate actively in school life.

One of the ways children do this is by joining a pupil group. Each pupil group is led by a member of staff and all children join a group at the beginning of each session. Each group meets once a month to discuss their priorities and members are given the chance to feedback to their class. Pupil Groups contribute regularly to school assemblies, by sharing their priorities and involving the wider school in the work they are doing.

On this page, and the Pupil Group pages you will find information about each group, including photos and minutes from their monthly meetings.
