Pupil voice in our schools means a whole-school commitment to listening to the views, wishes and experiences of all our children. It means placing value on what children tell school staff about their experiences.

Children are provided with meaningful opportunities to share their experiences, views and hopes about our school. Pupils know that it is safe and that it is important for them to express their views on what happens at school. They know that what they say is valued and will be listened to and considered.

We are committed to listening to the thoughts, wishes and experiences of all children via:

• Our 'Wesham Way!'

Our Pupils will always demonstrate ‘Ready, Safe and Respect’.​

We will be kind and courteous.​

 We will listen and be listened to.​

We will be curious, resilient and confident learners.​

We will respect ALL pupils, adults and property.​

We will live out our Gospel Values.

• Pupils have opportunities to take on student leadership roles which include: Senior Prefects, Prefects, House Captains/Behaviour Ambassadors, Worship Team, Librarians, Subject Ambassadors, Play Leaders, Secretly Famous Ambassadors and opportunities to take on specific roles in their class.

• The School Council play a major part in providing a structured and systematic approach to enable all pupils to share their ideas, views and concerns about the school and wider community. These are children from Year 2 to Year 6, who will hold the role for one year and participate in a half termly meeting to assist the school with vital decision making including courageous advocacy, promoting keeping healthy, improving our school and looking after God's Earth.

• Pupils have regular opportunities to discuss issues that may arise in school through structured activities like weekly Picture News, through the content of our PSHE curriculum, which has lots of rich opportunities for debate, discussion and reflection and through pupil surveys which are set across the year.

• The curriculum allows opportunities for pupils to develop their vocabulary, knowledge and understanding, whilst using their pupil voice. This enables children to make considerate suggestions to improve the school, local community and wider world.
