The School Council is a body of elected students meant to represent the views and opinions of all the students of the school. In other words, it is an exercise in empowering the students to lead, decide and work as a team for school initiatives.
The Student Council gives the children an opportunity to witness the Principles of Democracy as enshrined in our constitution, during the process of fair and free elections held at school and post elections when the Student Council formed is ‘of the students, by the students and for the students.’
The Student Council is a body comprising of students from Grades IX and XII. The junior Head Boy and Head Girl is selected from Grade VI. The members of the Student Council handle sports and cultural activities of the school under the guidance of their teachers. The elected members of this prestigious body get a taste of responsibility and the opportunity to exercise their leadership skills.
The teachers submit nominations of the students for the various posts. The criteria for selection are academic performance, communication skills, a responsible attitude and good behaviour. The emphasis is on fostering the ability to communicate, contesting the election with a spirit of healthy competition and taking on the mantle of a good leader willingly. The gruelling election process begins with nominations and culminates in a free and fair computerised voting process by the students of Grade VI to XII. The result is declared the same day. The official handing over the responsibilities to the elected students is done in the Investiture ceremony at the beginning of the academic year.
In the Investiture ceremony the winners of the election form the Student Council and take an oath to uphold the trust invested in them and take the school forward in achieving its initiatives.
