Pupil Voice
Pupil Voice is one of the school's long term priorities. if we are going to teach the children life skills, they should be able to practise these skills in real life situations.
- We encourage children to take responsibility for their behaviour through our Assertive Discipline Approach
- Through our target setting approach, we enable children to take responsibility for their learning, to know their strengths and to address their weaknesses
- Children have an input into the curriculum through saying what they would like to learn about a topic
- Children are beginning to evaluate their lessons constructively, stating what has worked for them and how the lesson could have been better. they are aware of learning styles and the Multiple Intelligences
School Council
We have 20 classes at Cleves. Each of the 20 classes elect a representative from their class to attend meetings. The Schools Council meet once a month, after school and on some lunchtimes. They discuss important issues that affect them and contribute to making the school a better place to be for everyone. The School Council bring their class ideas to the meeting and discuss what to do, then feedback to their classes. A Chair Person and Secretary are elected for each term and organise an agenda and the minutes for the meetings. Cleves School Council is also part of the Elm School Council with five other schools. The School Council made up the Cleves School Code of Conduct and review this annually. The Code of Conduct can be found on the right.
The School Council are also responsible for choosing our charity annually and for the school year 2009-2010 this is The Rett Syndrome Association UK.
