Pupil Voice

As ‘junior citizens’ and school councillors, pupils make a positive difference to life at school. Through taking on responsibilities, such as play leaders, pupils model games and help their younger peers to enjoy playtimes.

Ofsted - May 2025

 

At Broadfield every child has a voice and is given the opportunity to support and lead our school

Here are the committees your child could be involved in:

School Council:

Children have the opportunity to apply to be part of the school council before being voted in by their peers. They form part of the communication team which supports the children to have a voice on subjects that matter to them.They support the Senior Leadership Team in making important decision about the school by voicing their ideas and opinions.

Librarians:

Our Librarians are committed to ensuring our school has a fantastic library for our children to read in and a wide range of books to select from. They support staff in the promotion of reading across the school.

Mental Health Ambassadors:

This is led by SENCO and Thought-Full.

Play Leaders:

Children are trained to lead games and support their peers on the playground. This is managed in partnership with Crawley Town Football Club.

Reading Buddies:

The children in years 5 and 6 will pair with KS1 to support reading at points throughout the year. This gives the children an opportunity to be a role model to the younger children.

Safeguarding Ambassadors:

The children in year 5 will represent the ‘voice’ of the child in our school. At their level, they will be the ‘eyes and ears’ for safeguarding worries who can point children in the right direction if they are unsure who to speak to. They will become children with a growing knowledge and understanding for some key areas of safeguarding.
