--- title: "School Council" url: "https://www.tgschool.co.uk/children/school-council" school: "Temple Grafton C of E Primary School" --- # School Council ![](https://www.tgschool.co.uk/images/images/CF365ECFEDC21490DAD4B788AC746B56.png) The purpose of our school council is to enable children to participate in the decision making process of the school and gain first-hand experience of the workings of a democratic organisation. Every September new forum representatives are elected by their classmates. Temple Grafton will have a total of 10 representatives. The school council meets approximately once a month with Mrs Yorke to discuss issues that have been raised in school that affect the children or the wider community. **Think of all the decisions that are made about your school..........** - how can we make lessons more interesting - what school trips should we organise - what equipment should we buy - how can we help pupils make friends But how can teachers listen to all the ideas? That would take too long, and nothing would get done. Pupils need a way of discussing issues, and making decisions which will help everyone in school. Schools work better when pupils and teachers are working together and listening to each other. ### Children - [Children](https://www.tgschool.co.uk/children) - [Accelerated Reader](https://www.tgschool.co.uk/children/accelerated-reader) - [Choir](https://www.tgschool.co.uk/children/choir) - [Homework](https://www.tgschool.co.uk/children/homework) - [Keeping Safe](https://www.tgschool.co.uk/children/keeping-safe) - [Learning Zones](https://www.tgschool.co.uk/children/learning-zones) - [School Council](https://www.tgschool.co.uk/children/school-council) - [Why Do We Need a School Council?](https://www.tgschool.co.uk/children/school-council/why-do-we-need-a-school-council) - [TG Council Members](https://www.tgschool.co.uk/children/school-council/tg-council-members) - [Council Meeting Minutes](https://www.tgschool.co.uk/children/school-council/council-meeting-minutes) - [How to Become a Council Member](https://www.tgschool.co.uk/children/school-council/how-to-become-a-council-member) - [Sports Houses](https://www.tgschool.co.uk/children/sports-houses) - [Stars of the Week](https://www.tgschool.co.uk/children/stars-of-the-week) ### Temple Grafton C of E Primary School Church Bank Alcester Warwickshire B49 6NU 01789 772384 ### Useful Links - [Admissions](https://www.tgschool.co.uk/school-information/admissions) - [Vacancies](https://www.tgschool.co.uk/school-information/job-vacancies) - [Calendar](https://www.tgschool.co.uk/calendar) - [Term Dates](https://www.tgschool.co.uk/parents/term-dates) ### Helpful Links - [Forest School](https://www.tgschool.co.uk/school-information/forest-school) - [Curriculum](https://www.tgschool.co.uk/parents/curriculum) - [Newsletters](https://www.tgschool.co.uk/parents/newsletters) - [Contact Us](https://www.tgschool.co.uk/contact) ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/templegraftonprimary) © Copyright 2026 Temple Grafton C of E Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.tgschool.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
