Our School Council:
At Joseph’s we have a School Council made up of two representatives from each class. The representatives are voted for in a democratic vote by the other members of their class. The benefit of this team and its members is to develop their leadership skills and give a voice to our pupils.
The School Council also provides an opportunity for further communication between pupils and staff; ensuring that pupil input is an integral part of the decision-making processes where appropriate.
The aims of the School Council are to:
• act as a forum for the expression of ideas and concerns of pupils.
• keep staff and parents informed of pupil opinion.
• inform other pupils about school plans and developments.
• ensure that pupil input is an integral part of the school decision making processes where appropriate.

Something the school council feel strongly about is bullying:
Together we can stop bullying and create safe environments in which children and young people can live, grow, play and learn.
At St Joseph’s we have a NO TOLERANCE approach to bullying. We want to stop it in its tracks.
To do this we need to:
- Understand what bullying is
- Report any incidents to an adult in school
- Look after each other.
- Listen to others, and be prepared to help.
- Make good choices. This may mean that we have to:
- Go against our friends in order to make the right choice.
- Be courageous
- Be prepared to tell
- Stand up to the bullies.
