The student council offers an opportunity for students to make valuable contributions to school life and to have their voices heard. In turn students develop personal skills such as communication, planning, negotiation and organisation.

The student council is made up of 2 student representatives from each year group, who are elected to the position by their classmates. Meetings are held regularly throughout the school year where agendas are discussed.
