Student Voice

Catriona Pene

What is Student Voice?"Student Voice" describes students giving their voice to what happens

within the school and classroom. We want to encourage students to

know that their experiences, opinions and ideas are valued in all

aspects of school life.

Student Voice can feature in all aspects of our class work, from

students participating in small group classroom conversations to

students joining in curriculum design or developing school policy.

Why is Student Voice Important?

We know that student achievement and engagement will increase when students have more ownership of their school community and of their learning.

Encouraging student voice.In order for students to “develop a voice” we need to give them

multiple opportunties to share experiences, opinions, ideas

so that we build student confidence and normalise sharing.

We need to ensure we share in a range of ways and allow everyones

voice to be heard.
