Hello from involver – newsletter number 9 Sorry there was no newsletter last month but we got a bit distracted by Asher’s wedding. We promise it won’t happen again (at least until Greg gets married). Resource: Get a politician in to your school This free resource from the Hansard Society shows you how to get [...]
A list of useful works on the importance of school councils, student voice and participation in education. Compiled for educational charity ARK.
Asher and I had a great day at Parliament last week. It was the Speaker’s School Council Awards Ceremony, that we’ve helped Parliament out on for the second year running. It’s been a brilliant project for us to work on.
Modelling democracy is an incredibly important role of the school council, but it’s something that’s easy to get wrong. Are you trying to model values or structures?
So today is the last day to respond to the National Curriculum Review Consultation. involver’s primary interest in this is the threat to Citizenship. To this end we’ve been founding members of Democratic Life and I’ve just used their excellent form to submit a personal response to the consultation (we’re submitting an organisational one too). [...]
5 short sessions that can be run in tutor/form time to introduce the whole school to what the school council is, why they should stand and how they should vote.
This is a question that I am sure many schools struggle with, and I’d be lying if I said Little Heath hadn’t faced this problem over the years as well. The answer to this question can be the key to success in student voice. It might be that the attendance at your school council is [...]
Another year, another amazing Student Voice Conference at Little Heath School in Reading. I thought I’d write a blog that reflected on what we saw and learnt last year. It’s split into two parts because I took LOADS of videos. So the ‘building blocks’ for success in Little Heath are still the same and still [...]
Here’s Alison’s second blog, about the amazing Student Voice Conference at Little Heath! I’ve got a few videos from the day too, which I’ll upload soon. It’s been an exciting couple of weeks! Wednesday 2nd February was our annual Student Voice Conference at Little Heath. If I’m being honest I can’t believe it is over [...]
One of the main issues that many school councils face is that they don’t include enough students. This often leaves the rest of the school pretty uninterested in what the school council are doing. In trying to overcome this, here’s Asher giving a few ideas for you on how to think about the traditional school [...]
A rundown on what we’ve been up to at the end of last year and beginning of this one and also some free stuff for you.
Can your school council noticeboard actually help drive change? Here’s a simple idea for what you could do with that space that would actually make your school council more effective.
A short, practical session to help students look at the pros and cons of different ways of collecting views from across the school.
A free little pocket guide for school council reps, year council reps, and class reps, in fact anyone who represents others as part of student voice.
