Democracy

Democracy means that everyone has a say in the important decisions that affect our lives.  In Britain we have elections where we can vote for politicians to represent us in local councils and in Parliament.

At Christ Church School we have pupil voice committees such as the School Council which are made up of children who speak and make decisions on our behalf.  We can have a say by speaking to them, completing surveys or using the suggestion boxes.

In our topic work, teachers listen to what we would like to learn about and where possible, this is included in lessons.
