How to empower and spark collective action in children as young as 4
Empowering Young Voices: How Smart School Council Transforms Children into Changemakers
What if children as young as four could identify problems in their school and take meaningful action to solve them?
Smart School Council is revolutionising how we think about student voice and democratic participation in education, proving that age is no barrier to making a difference.
This innovative idea started by Greg Sanderson gives even our youngest Citizens the tools to spot issues, propose solutions, and mobilise their peers for collective action. From playground safety concerns to lunchtime improvements, children are discovering they have the power to create real change in their school community.
The results speak for themselves: increased engagement, stronger problem-solving skills, and a generation of confident young citizens who understand that their voices matter. But perhaps most importantly, Smart School Council is showing us that when we trust children with responsibility, they rise to meet it in remarkable ways.
