Student Voice

At St Mary’s we strongly believe in providing students with the opportunity to contribute to the strategic and operational development of the school.

We value students’ opinions and strive to ensure that they are considered by leaders and governors in the work of the school and that students are provided with opportunities to lead events across the school.

Our SLI Body (Student Leadership and Independence) provides students with a platform to contribute to this work.

The aims of the SLI body at SMHS are to:

  • Provide increased opportunities for student leadership within SMHS

Student Council: A body compromising of students from all year groups of the school that focuses on whole school issues

Year Council: Is made up of representatives from each year group that focuses on year specific issues

SLI Groups: When required, designated SLI groups are established to develop specific areas of work of the school – for instance, LGBT; school Behaviour For Learning

Your Voice: A platform for all students to raise any issues of concern
