Pupils

Welcome to the Pupils page of our school website, where we celebrate the experiences the pupils of Bowmansgreen enjoy during their time with us. We place great emphasis on personal development, nurturing lifelong skills and self-esteem through a variety of engaging initiatives.

Our Eco-Council actively works on projects that promote sustainability, encouraging pupils to take an active role in making a positive impact on the world around them. Our educational visits are thoughtfully planned to complement the curriculum, providing pupils with hands-on learning experiences that ignite their curiosity and broaden their horizons.

Within our House System, pupils develop a strong sense of belonging, participating in various activities that promote teamwork and friendly competition. The Pupil Parliament plays a crucial role in fostering leadership skills and ensuring that every student’s voice is valued, empowering them to influence decisions within the school community. 

We are proud of our Sports Ambassadors and Leaders, who inspire their classmates to embrace an active lifestyle and promote participation in various physical activities. These roles encourage teamwork, resilience, and a love for sport, culminating in a well-rounded experience at Bowmansgreen.

At Bowmansgreen, we are fortunate to have a wonderfully diverse community of children, and we take great pride in celebrating this diversity. One of the most exciting ways we do this is through our Sign of the Week initiative! Each week, some enthusiastic children from our school select a sign from British Sign Language (BSL) to share with their peers. This delightful project not only encourages communication and understanding but also fosters a sense of belonging among everyone at Bowmansgreen. Join us in learning these signs and embracing the rich tapestry of cultures that make our school truly special!

We offer a range of Extra-Curricular Clubs at Bowmansgreen. Being able to offer our children a wide range of diverse extra curricular activities is very important as it encourages them to become independent, confident and successful members of the community. Many of our clubs are run by external providers and take place after school but we also run clubs at lunchtime.

The Safeguarding Committee is made up of pupils from across the school, working closely with Mrs Fleming to ensure a safe environment for both students and staff. They actively recognise and appreciate community members who contribute to making our school a welcoming and positive place. Collecting pupil voice is essential, as they gather feedback on how the school can enhance safety. Moreover, they are always there to listen to their classmates' concerns and worries. 

The Pupil Parliament consists of 12 Members of Parliament, elected by their peers, creating a platform for students to express their opinions and influence decisions that affect them. This initiative allows pupils to engage actively in school life, fostering a sense of community and ownership. Pupils relish the opportunity to have their voices heard, as they collaborate with staff to bring about positive changes in their educational environment. It's a fantastic way to empower young leaders!

Bowmansgreen Academy is an exciting initiative designed specifically for our Year 6 students as they prepare to transition to secondary school.
