Cinnamon Brow CE Primary School

Democracy is well established within Cinnamon Brow CE School. Pupils have the opportunity to have their voice heard through our Pupil Voice groups which involve all of our children from Year 3 to Year 6 (with Year 2 joining in from Summer term).

Within pupil voice groups, pupils are able to discuss and make decisions that have direct impact on school life. Importantly, they are also able to be courageous advocates and be agents of change. Two members of parliament lead each pupil voice group.

Parliament are elected from Y6, following a hustings event, to represent the pupil voice in school and they form the Parliamentary Cabinet.

During the election process, children learn about democracy. They learn about the UK Parliamentary system. When the children learn about the Greeks, as part of the curriculum, they learn about the history of our democratic nations and other systems that can be used as alternatives to democracy.

The pupil voice and parliament system empowers our children to put democracy into practice. It is a powerful way for our children to further develop their ability to debate and learn to disagree well.
