Meet the New Mill School Council
At New Mill Infant and Junior School, our school council is a group of children that represents the views of all our pupils. It gives our children the opportunity to have their voices heard and be part of the whole school community. They help to make decisions about school life and organise projects that support learning and development, such as organising charity events or representing the school with visitors.
We value the opinions of our pupils, and our school council gives pupils a forum to share their opinions during meetings.
