Students' views have developed my school in many ways. Firstly, one of the main activities that I am involved in is staff interviews. This includes a panel of students who are chosen to interview a set of candidates who want to teach in the school. The questions range from "How could you benefit our school?" to "How can you use our IT resources to improve your lessons?"
By doing this we can improve the school by getting the views of students and teachers and getting the best of both worlds. Another field in which students' opinions contribute is through the behavioural panel. The behavioural panel is the assessment of a student that has been suspended for a short period for misbehaving and a panel of students reviews the student's actions and talks to them on their own level. I can recommend this to any school as the students can relate better to their peers than they can to teachers.
