School Council
School Council Action Plan 2026–2027
Our Voice, Our School, Our Difference
Our School Council gives pupils a meaningful voice in making our school an even safer, happier and more inclusive place for everyone. This year, our School Councillors will lead two important whole-school priorities: Allergy Awareness and No Bullies Here.
Through assemblies, campaigns, pupil consultation and activities, our councillors will help ensure that every child understands how they can play their part.
Priority 1: Allergy Awareness Campaign
Our aim:
To increase understanding of allergies across the school and help everyone understand how their actions can keep others safe.
What will School Council do?
- Learn about allergies and why allergy awareness is important.
- Gather pupils’ views and identify what children already know.
- Help launch our whole-school Allergy Awareness Campaign.
- Create pupil-friendly posters, messages and displays.
- Share key allergy awareness messages in assemblies and classes.
- Promote safe and responsible behaviours around food.
- Work with staff to develop an Allergy Awareness Pledge for pupils.
- Regularly revisit the campaign to ensure everyone remembers the key messages.
What difference do we want to make?
We want every pupil to understand that allergies can be serious and that we all have a responsibility to help keep one another safe.
Priority 2: No Bullies Here Campaign
Our aim:
To ensure every child feels safe, respected, included and confident that bullying is never accepted in our school.
What will School Council do?
- Gather pupil voice about friendships, behaviour and how safe children feel in school.
- Help launch our No Bullies Here campaign.
- Develop clear, child-friendly messages about what bullying is and what it is not.
- Make sure pupils know what to do and who to speak to if they are worried.
- Create posters, displays and campaign materials.
- Lead assemblies and activities promoting kindness, respect and inclusion.
- Encourage pupils to be upstanders, speaking out and seeking help when something is not right.
- Work with staff to review the impact of the campaign and gather pupil feedback.
What difference do we want to make?
We want every child to know that their voice matters, that they have the right to feel safe and that there is always a trusted adult ready to listen and help.
How Will We Know We Have Made a Difference?
Throughout the year, School Council will gather pupil views and review the impact of both campaigns. We want to see:
- Pupils confidently explaining how they can help keep children with allergies safe.
- Increased awareness of the difference between bullying and friendship difficulties.
- Pupils knowing who they can talk to when they need help.
- Children demonstrating kindness, respect and responsibility towards one another.
- School Councillors able to identify and celebrate the difference their work has made.
Our School Council Commitment
We will listen. We will represent. We will take action. We will make a difference.
