The Speaker's School Council Awards 2013 is now open for entries!
This annual awards scheme helps to celebrate and recognise the achievements of your school council. The 2013 Awards are now open for entries so get thinking about which project you are most proud of. Big or small, we want to hear about all of them!
If you haven’t entered before, take a look at the website for resources to help you plan a project and to see details of the winning projects from previous years for inspiration.
About the Awards Scheme
Each year, we want to hear about projects that made a difference in your school or community, whatever their size. What's important isn't how big your project was, but that your school council's efforts led to a positive change.
The scheme is open to every infant, primary and secondary school in the UK. A winning school council in each of four age categories receives an award:
- Infant age (4-7)
- Junior age (7-11)
- Secondary age (11-16)
- Young adults (16-19)
Additionally, every school council that enters receives a prestigious certificate from the Speaker of the House of Commons. And there are a range of prizes and certificates for the runners up and winners.
