The School CouncilThe School Council is a forum for young people to communicate and generate ideas that represent Thomas Tallis School’s community ethos.
Student voice is important because it allows us to feed back our opinions about the way our school is run. We have been involved in interviewing our Head, Heads of Year, designing our school uniform and sharing ideas for the design of our state of the art school building. It is fun, because different year groups work together to share our experiences and ideas for the future. Our students have the opportunity to offer ideas and feedback through their tutor groups. Every Friday during am registration, students are asked their opinions, views and ideas on a range of topics and questions that are relevant to them and their school lives. Tutor representatives also attend Year Council meetings where they bring their group's ideas, questions or issues. Two elected year representatives feed this information to the School Council via minute sharing and verbal discussions.
School Council meetings take place on Friday Week B in Room 1.3.34. During meetings the students are given the responsibility of practically problem-solving issues on behalf of the school community. If you would like to contact the student council please email us at studentcouncil@thomastallis.org.uk or the School Council Coordinator Sheila Kelly on skelly@thomastallis.org.uk. If you would like to get involved in any way or have an idea for an event please find Ms.Kelly in the SCALI office Block 3 or her teaching room 1.3.32.

School Council 2016-17
Year 10 Council have met with Mr Tomlin and Ms Dedman to discuss plans for this half term as well as the start of Year 11. We spoke about various issues and initiatives that will be put in place to help us in Year 11.
Starting this half-term we will be pushing more students to access GCSE Pod, if you do not have your login or password please ask your tutor for it.
We also spoke about the after school support sessions, these will start from September on Monday, Tuesday and Thursdays after school.
Mr Tomlin is also looking into a Lunchtime Revision Room for Year 11 students, this will hopefully be in place in the first few weeks back.
In addition we also spoke with Ms Dedman, Mr Tomlin and Ms Springer about making revision timetables at the start of the year as well as having some revision tips sessions in registration or PHSCE. The Year Council will also be putting up posters every two to three weeks in tutor rooms with different study tips and tricks.

After meeting with Ms Simmons three times in last half term and raising issues to do with food, classroom and toilets we have together made some great progress. From this document you can see what has been done about some of the issues that were brought to our attention by the student body. In addition there will now be a new smaller panini available priced at £1.10. Thank you to Ms Perry from the kitchen staff who came to show us the panini and talk to us about the menus. Also we would like to thank Ms Simmons for attending our meetings and speaking with us.
