2017 Student Council Election

by Vashti Turner  on February 5, 2017  in  Academy News Student Council

The 2017 student council election was a high-profile event within the academy as the student council are able to make real changes to the Academy. They are the voice for the students and are able to make a real impact.

Students who were shortlisted from the initial nominations spent a week campaigning for votes, culminating in speeches during year assemblies on Friday 27th January. Well done to all of the shortlisted candidates for student council; the standard of speeches was excellent.

Students took to the ballot box to vote in their representatives for the next year on Friday 27th January. It was a strong field and all of the candidates did fantastically well. The interest and enthusiasm from students was brilliant to see across the whole school community.

We are now pleased to announce that the following students were elected to the 2017 Student Council: Nada El Ogbani, Jake Ayling, Louzia Benzerga, Taif Rahman, Harry Senior, Parmida Sarrami, Seynab Abdirahman, Juan Domingo and Reece. The newly elected council had their first meeting on Friday 3rd February. We look forward to hearing about their progress over the coming year.
