School Council

At Thorpe we want to give all our pupils the opportunity to share their thoughts and opinions and have a say in the decisions that affect their learning and well-being.

One of the main ways we do this at Thorpe is by having an an active school council who act as a link between the children and the Senior Leadership Team and help to improve everyone's experience. Every year, each class elects two pupils to represent them, we hold regular meetings throughout the academic year and complete tasks alongside the staff.
