At Bassett Green Primary School, we believe that children should have a voice in their learning and in their school.  Our Pupil Leadership Team are this voice for their peers and are learning to participate in key decision making for our school family.  Through regular meetings, the Pupil Leadership Team discuss and action what they believe will benefit our school community, taking into account of the thoughts and opinions of children throughout the school.  We want our children to be confident in raising and discussing issues that are important to them and have ownership over their time in school.

Our Pupil Leadership Team are elected, by their peers, at the start of each school year after sharing their reasons why they would make a strong leader.  They are role models of the school and enjoy having the responsibility.  The team is led by a head boy and girl and a deputy head boy and girl.  

What do our pupil leadership team say they would like to be?

Hello and welcome to the Pupil Leadership Team!

We have been taking part in meetings this term to support many good causes. For example, we have recently designed the fundraiser poster for our new Christmas Bake Off! We too will be judging the junior, staff and community winners! All earnings will go towards playground equipment chosen by children at the school.

We have also been working hard with Southampton City Council to promote our School Street and the 'Clean Air Project'. We have taken part in research outside the school to identify how people travel and we have been promoting scooting/walking to help keep our air clean. How do you travel to school?! If you haven't tried scooting or walking, we recommend it!

In the new year, we will be thinking of fundraising ideas for other causes which we support in our local community. Help us by letting us know what ideas you have for raising money. e.g sponge a teacher or perhaps slime a teacher! Let us know your thoughts as we will include these in our meetings with Miss Agius. 

Best wishes, 

The Pupil Leadership Team
