b. How we are elected - democracy in action

As part of our work on British Values, we teach pupils how democracy works. 

Our election process includes: 

  • Children preparing short speeches 
  • Class discussions about what makes a good leader 
  • Secret ballots 
  • Counting votes fairly 
  • Electing one representative per year 

Pupils learn that democracy means everyone has a voice and that leaders represent the views of others, not just themselves.
