Pupil Parliament

Supporting East 1 Schools Partnership, UK in their participation in Pupil Parliament. Pupil Parliament is an event that gives young people in schools the opportunity to discuss issues that are of concern to them. The Pupil Parliament discusses the Environment, Crime and Anti-Social Behaviour and Poverty and Homelessness. The pupils have the opportunity to ask a panel of experts questions about the topics and receive advice on how they can work towards alleviating these problems. The pupils then work in groups with pupils from other schools and discuss the panels’ advice. Based on this advice they develop an action plan for the East 1 Schools Partnership to be worked on in the next academic year.
