School Council

The Ferrars Academy School Council

School Council 2020-2021

This year saw a very different way that the children voted for their School Council representatives. Due to Covid 19, voting had to take place the classrooms with no campaign posters, no voting booths set up and no big assembly to announce the successful children. However the successful children still have a very important part to play in the school. They are the voice of the rest of the children in school.

Remember, if you would like to make any changes or have ideas to improve school to speak to your representative.

We would like to introduce the successful candidates:

Pink Zyron and Sara

Turquoise Arden and Khadijah

Green Aateesh and Aliza

Orange Aaminah and Angelo

Purple Raza and Ashlyn

White Yakub and Ainisha

Miss Sabir and Mrs Agnew are looking forward to working with the new School Councillors during the coming year.

Not only was the way we voted very different, but meetings will be different too. We will still meet every Wednesday lunchtime, however as the year group bubbles cannot mix Year 1 will be with Mrs Agnew in the DT Room and the Year 2 children will be with Miss Sabir in the Explorer Room and the meetings will be held using Zoom.
