At St Nicholas Priory we feel that it is imperative that our children understand democracy as a key British Value and as such we seek to provide opportunities  for each year group to connect with a decision maker in order to ensure that they understand the democratic process.

We currently have a serving Parliament  each of whom will have participated in a democratic process by putting themselves forward for election , creating a manifesto and delivering this to their peers  . Our Parliament meets weekly , discusses topical issues,  learns debating skills and  contacts other head teachers in order to make visits and engage in collaborative projects. Just recently we have had the opportunity to visit a school in Bradwell and had a debate. We are also working with another school to co-fund for a school in Sierra Leone . 

Parliament week in November is also highlighted and shared through collective worship.

Our Parliament is able to be responsive to need and are eager to recognise and support changes for the better locally , nationally and beyond.
