We believe that gaining feedback from the students is vital.
Our new Student Council is an important part of what we do as an academy.
Students will work alongside teachers
so that our staff gain valuable feedback from the students about
what it is like to learn here
.
The Student Council will
meet every week after school
and get involved in various activities, for example developing our feedback policy and meeting with governors and senior leaders across the Federation.
In addition to our Student Council, there is also a Federation-wide Learning Commission, which was set up as a research and development project to bring together hundreds of students and teachers to create a new design for learning across the Harris Federation.
