Year Councils are in operation in Second Year, Third Year, Transition Year and Fifth Year. First Year students join the Whole School Council (WSC) in January after their own election within the year group for a First Year Student Council. Elections for student representatives are held in May for the upcoming year. Students from First Year to Transition Year vote to elect two representatives from each form group to the relevant Year Council. These councils then elect two representatives to sit on the Whole School Council. Year Councils meet once a month with their Year Heads and a senior student officer from the WSC. The WSC representatives often bring forward issues and points raised from year council meetings to the WSC for further discussion and consideration. 

Year Councils and the Whole School Council serve as vital channels of communication for expressing student perspectives, allowing the Senior Leadership Team to understand the needs and concerns of the students in the day-to-day life of the College. This dialogue fosters a collaborative approach to decision-making and ensures that the College’s policies and initiatives are reflective of the diverse experiences and viewpoints within the student community.
