Governor – Mr Andrew Matthews

I have joined the governing body as a parent governor. I have two children currently in school in Classes 1 and 2, (and another joining the school in a few years) so the school will be a large part of our family life for many years to come. I have worked in aeronautical engineering for many years with experience in managing people, budgets, and projects. I hope to put my skills to use in supporting the school to continue to thrive.

School Council

School Council 2023-2024

At Deerhurst and Apperley we have are proud to have pupil representatives that take part in Class and School Council meetings. These councils are in place so that pupils have a voice and are involved in decisions about the school that affect them. Through Class Council all pupils have the opportunity to raise issues, share ideas and take part in discussions that involve all of their classmates in reaching a democratic solution. Wider issues that arise at Class Council are discussed further at School Council, this ensures that as many pupil voices as possible are heard.

Pupils at Deerhurst and Apperley know that this is their school and their thoughts and ideas matter.

What does a school council do?

A school council is a formal group of pupils who act as representatives of their classmates in discussing school issues with the headteacher and staff. It’s a brilliant way of representing and contributing to Pupil Voice in your school. Students are elected to represent the views of all pupils and also to improve their school.

“School council” means all kinds of school-based groups run by students, including student forums and youth parliaments. They help to make decisions about how the school is run and take on projects that support the children’s learning and development, such as organising charity events, representing the school at outside events or ensuring the school is environmentally friendly. School councils are usually elected annually by the other children. A school council does a number of things:

A school council usually meets with a teacher present to discuss and sort out problems. These could include school lunches, behaviour or ideas for fundraising events.
Members of the school council are responsible for carrying out the ideas that have been agreed upon, such as planning and raising awareness for school events.
Each year, every class will normally elect two representatives to be members of the school council.
