Welcome to our Pupil Action Group page

Pupil Action Groups 2024-2025

Our Pupil Action Groups (PAGs) are made up of pupils from Year 1 to Year 6.  Each PAG has an area that they take the lead on across the year, e.g. Welsh, behaviour, outdoor learning, etc.  The pupils take the lead and make the decisions, with the staff taking a supportive role only.   We have 5 core PAGs which cover equalities, rights, wellbeing, Welsh and our planet.  These core PAGs have a representative from each of our Year 3 to Year 6 classes who work together on identified issues.  The remaining pupils work as year groups, with each year group having their own focus (e.g. Year 4 are our Safety Saviours).

All members of the core PAGs sign a Code of Conduct, elect Chair and set targets, which make up an action plan for the year.

We meet up at the end of each half term for a morning,  to work on our action plans.  This is followed by our School Senedd meeting,  where the Chairs of each PAG get together to discuss their projects and ideas.  Once any decisions are made, the minutes of the Senedd are shared with the rest of the school via a PowerPoint in class assemblies; so that  all pupils know what is happening in their school.

School Senedd 2023-24

Our School Senedd is made up of the chair-pupil from each PAG.  The Senedd meets after each PAG session to discuss updates and work on ways to liaise with each other.

Here is this year's Senedd - 

All members of the Senedd have to sign a Code of Conduct, help write their own constitution and an action plan for the year.

Our Pupil Action Groups are made up of representatives from Years 3 through to Year 6. They are lead by the Head Boy and Girl who the children elect by holding a ballot during the Autumn Term. Follow the link below to see the videos created by this year's candidates for Head Boy & Girl:

Our Pupil Action Groups (PAGs) are made up of pupils from Years 3, 4, 5 and 6.  We aim to have at least one pupil from each class in every PAG.  The PAGs meet at the end of each half term to discuss topical and school-based issues. They work together with their fellow pupils, staff and governors to support school development.  Each PAG is lead by a Year 6 chairperson and supported by a teacher.

Members from each PAG are encouraged to discuss issues raised with their classmates and familiar adults before feeding back their ideas within their Pupil Action Group meetings. PAG discussions are then shared with members of Senior Leadership through the School Senedd, which is made up of the Year 6 chairpersons from each group, who meet after each Pupil Action Group session.

• Arty Action - improving the creativity in our curriculum and in our local environment.
