Milford School Council!

“Being on the School Council is a serious job. School council members can be some of the most important people in our school, and can help make it a nicer place to be for pupils, teachers and other staff. ”

Here are our school council members they are made up of two children from each of the key stage two classes.

These children have been chosen by their classmates because they believe they have the skills needed to listen to their classes views and concerns and are good communicators and will get things sorted for them.
