Pupil Voice

At Crombie, we enable pupil voice in a number of ways.

Pupil Council

We have a Pupil Council which represents the pupils’ voice. Pupils from P2 to P7 go through a formal election process i.e. nomination, election, talk, voting, to be their year representatives. Two pupils, one boy and one girl, are subsequently elected as pupil councillors and hold office for one year. To support them with this a depute boy and girl are also elected and stand up in their absence.

Throughout the year the ‘Council’ will meet regularly with staff members, be involved in discussions and take forward a variety of initiatives. In the past these have included supporting fundraising for selected charities and implementing changes to the school.

Pupil Council comments:

P2: “I think that it is fun!”

P5: “I like the Pupil Council because you get to help out with the school.”

P7: ”In the Pupil Council we help make lots of money for special events.”

Pupil Eco Group 

We also have pupil representatives from P2 – P7 that help maintain the school eco-courtyard and gather suggestions from the whole school on how we can be more environmentally friendly.

Rotakids

Our rotakids group consists of P6 pupils who volunteer their time to support our local community and global charities. They meet regularly with our partners from the Rotary to consider how they can help local residents and good causes. So far this year they have collected for the Shoe Box Appeal, raised money for end polio now and plan to support a community litter pick.

Champions Group

Our Champions Group consists of 5 P7 pupils who support pupil’s right. They work with the Head teacher and another teacher to support our community to be themselves and celebrate differences. They are currently working towards their Bronze level for the LGBTQ+ Charter.

Digital Leaders

Our digital leaders work with two teachers to learn about all things digital and to then take their learning into the classrooms to upskill peers and teachers. They are a very creative group who love the digital world and all that it offers.
