“At Rayner Stephens we believe student leadership is at the core of student achievement. Learning is not something that is done to us, it is a collaborative process with adults and young people working in partnership. At Rayner Stephens we believe that the more engaged you are in your school the more likely you are to succeed.”
The Student Union has been launched as the rebranded and revamped student council. In the past, student voice and involvement has been about ‘own clothes day’ or ‘the toilet facilities’. At Rayner Stephens we want that to change. We want to have conversations about teaching and learning, classroom environments and the aspirations of all our students. We wann the Student Union to take an active role in supporting others learning and shaping the school.
‘A platform for inclusion’
The Platform Network is a new addition to school. And will be a group of selected students that will be equipped to become ‘inclusion activists’ and who should be confident and empowered to speak out about social justice issues within the school. This group of students will feel empowered to point out equality issues and will endeavour to make our school a more welcoming place for everyone.
Key areas of focus:
LGBTQ+ Pride Month and History Month
Black Lives Matter Events, Black History Month and BAME inclusion.
Coming Soon - Anti Bullying Ambassadors and ECO School Representatives.
