At Gladysdale Primary School we acknowledge that students have unique perspectives on learning, teaching, and schooling, and should have the opportunity to actively shape their own education. Student voice involves students actively participating in their schools, communities and the education system, contributing to decision making processes and collectively influencing outcomes by putting forward their views, concerns and ideas.

Examples how student voice is fostered at Gladysdale Primary School:

• Circle Time
• Personal learning goals and taking part in the development of their IEPs (Individualised Education Program)
• Student conferencing in Literacy and Numeracy
• Student-led activities
• Designing challenging learning experiences based on learning goals, interests, passion and talents
• Students taking part in decision making, communicating their ideas and taking responsibility for their learning
