• .@joehallforluton Good job, but what's really important to find out is how they're empowering the children NOT on the school council. #
• @luke_cb the participation you want has to have value to the participant in itself. No additional rewards, make the opportunity rewarding. in reply to luke_cb #
• @JoeHallforLuton Good methods of communication are key, alongside structures for those not elected to get involved in action. #
• @schoolgoverning Good luck with your interview. Do you know what they asked the school council? in reply to schoolgoverning #
• A lot of people seem to be feeling bored in Citizenship. What should we do to make it better? @Colinmac93 @barmyblonde4eva @Emzy1791 #
