The Children’s Parliament is the voice of our children across Transform. It is made up of two elected Yr 6 representatives from each school within the Trust. The children undertake an important role in identifying areas for improvement in the Trust, through consultation in school and being a driving force for change. The children work with their peers to identify projects they would like to work on in their schools and they were all able to confidently present their ideas and action plans to large groups over zoom and in person. No mean feat by any stretch!
The meetings take on a formal nature with an elected Chair, Vice Chair and Secretary taking control of the meetings. There have been a number of changes to the way Parliament is run in recent years, including meeting via zoom instead of in person to ensure equity now that the Trust has grown so much.
