Student Voice

Students at Flint High get to have their voice heard.

Every form group has a Student Representative on the School Council, a sports rep, an Eco Rep and a member of SNAG (School's Nutrition Action Group).  These groups meet once a month or more often if an urgent matter arises.  They discuss the burning issues of the day. 

Things that matter to them such as:

• the school environment
• behaviour in school
• school food
• how to change to save natural resources
• school uniform

Things that have happened because of the Student Voice at FHS

• They spoke to the our MP David Hanson and this led to a visit to parliament
• They wanted music in the porches and the canteen this is in the planning stage
• They wanted a new uniform-it happened
• The girls wanted improved toilet facilities-it was sorted
• School Council representatives were part of the interviews for: Mrs McClean, Miss Pughe, Mrs Millington, Mr Taylor, Miss Jones and Miss Hyde
• They didn't like the ugly bike sheds at the front of school so they were removed
• Paper recycling was not good enough so they improved it
• They have helped to write new policies such as the Presentation Policy. 
• They have designed planner pages on bullying

This school is a community that welcomes and encourages participation in decision making from all its members.
