Pupil Voice
At Atkinson Road, we believe it’s essential to listen to our pupils and value their opinions. The voice of every child plays a key role in shaping our school and curriculum. We strive to provide all our pupils with numerous opportunities to share their thoughts and contribute to decisions that impact their learning and well-being.
We are committed to ensuring that every voice is heard. To do this, we offer a variety of ways for our pupils to share their views and ideas. We regularly use questionnaires and engage in class discussions on important issues, but we also provide a range of lunchtime and after-school activities that help children build confidence, work together, and develop leadership and teamwork skills. These include roles such as Student Councillors, Eco-Warriors, Science Ambassadors, and Art Councillors—elected representatives from each class who meet regularly to discuss key topics.
Additionally, we have four Year 6 House Captains and two deputies, who serve as positive role models for the younger children, demonstrating exceptional behaviour, a strong work ethic, and a positive attitude.
