Pupil Voice

At Falcons, we are keen to give our pupils the opportunity to participate in enriching initiatives that extend beyond the classroom.

Pupil Learning Council 

The Pupils Learning Council is made up of various children from across Years 2 to 6 and their aim is to represent the school community in the development of teaching and learning. The council also focuses on the rights and responsibilities of children, working to ensure that these are respected by: 

  • Allowing the children to have a voice 
  • Helping the school and community be a better place 
  • Helping to improve learning in school 
  • Raising funds for children who may need our support 
  • Celebrating successes and achievements 

The Council rotates at the start of each term, with new members selected by their class peers via a democratic vote. These children then meet with Mrs Mann every week.

CREATIVITY COUNCIL

Our Creativity Council use their imagination, have brilliant ideas and develop their understanding of ‘the arts’.  

Each year we offer a group of Year 5 pupils the opportunity to join the Creativity Council and work with The Spark Arts. The Spark Arts for Children is a children's art charity who run The Spark Festival, with world class, performances and activities in communities around Leicester/shire.  

We get involved in some exciting projects like taking-over Leicester Museum and working with artists to develop children’s skills in reviewing, expressing opinion, identifying and communicating effectively on quality in the arts.

 

Lunchtime Sevadar 

Seva is very important in the Sikh faith and it means ‘selfless service’ - work or service performed without any thought of reward or personal benefit. In Punjabi, the person performing such service is called a Sevadar.  

Our Lunchtime Sevadars ensure our lunchtimes run smoothly by helping the lunchtime supervisors. Their responsibilities may include helping to clear the plates, cutlery and cups in the dinner hall. They also make sure that younger pupils moving around the school sensibly and safely.
