Student Council

Student Council is the highest student-led representational body at the Students' Union.

Student Council is an exclusive meeting for Student Leaders (Student Representatives, School Community Organisers, Society Committee members, Peer Mentors and Student Staff) that happens around 4-5 times each year (with the first meeting, electing the Chair and Deputy Chair).

Student Council gives you an insight into:

1. What is happening at the University and the Students’ Union behind the scenes?

2. What new ideas and policies do students want to bring to light?

3. Are your elected officers representing you properly and what can they do to be better? (all elected officers are required to attend Student Council, so you’ll have access to all the key voices by attending!)

By attending Student Council, you are polishing those transferable skills like communication, negotiation and public speaking with practice! You’ll also have a chance to make real change to students during your time at University.

No elections are currently running

How does everything work?

We want to ensure that we get as many Student Leaders as we can to attend Student Council so we’ve cut out all the words and made this short and simple using this timeline!...
