Head Boy and Head Girl

The Head Boy and Head Girl have many responsibilities at Bishop’s Tachbrook CE Primary School. They welcome our visitors and take them on a tour of our school, sharing stories and information about the school and their time here. The children share their ideas and experiences of school at our open days for new reception parents too.  Chairing the school council meetings, they use the agendas they have created to lead developments across school and listen to and gather pupil voice. One of the roles they enjoy most is ordering the rewards for our raffle ticket winners, ensuring the prizes will be treasured by children with a range of ages and interests and sticking to a tight budget. They also represent the school at any special occasions offsite.

The children in Year 6 are able to apply for the position of Head Boy and Head Girl. They write a letter to the head teacher to share the qualities that they have that show they will be able to fulfil the role. Children are then shortlisted from the letters they write and interviewed by the head teacher and one of the governors.

School Council

Our school council meet regularly to discuss life in school, suggest improvements and monitor how things are working when changes are made. They also help to make decisions about fundraising for our school charity. The Head Boy and Head Girl run the school council meetings and organise the agendas.

The school council found that several children in school were unhappy about the school dinners. They shared many ways that school dinners needed to be improved, from the dining experience to the food itself. Their thoughts and opinions were considered by the head teacher and senior leadership team and we have recently welcomed a new catering company (ABM) to provide the food at lunchtimes. We are all excited to see how this changes our lunchtime experience.
