The School Council extended to the Middle School

The School Council extended to the middle school (Conseil d’École élargi au collège) is an essential forum for dialogue and collaboration between families, teachers, and the school leadership team. Constituted for one year, it remains in function until the renewal of its members.

The Council must be consulted on all matters related to the functioning and life of the school, in particular:

- pedagogical structures

- organization of teaching hours and the school calendar

- the school project (or establishment project for the primary level), as proposed by the teachers’ council

- specific actions to ensure better use of allocated resources and adaptation to the school’s environment

- conditions for accommodating students with special educational needs, taking into account local constraints

- planning and organization of field trips

- issues related to students’ hygiene, health, and safety within school and extracurricular settings

- principles for selecting pedagogical materials and tools

- matters related to welcoming and informing parents, and the ways they may participate in school life

- the annual action plan of the primary–secondary (école-collège) council

- the annual action plan against all forms of violence, discrimination, and bullying
