NGA Pupil Parliament

At the heart of the Parliament are the Head Pupil and Deputy Head Pupil, who are elected through a whole-school democratic process. Candidates deliver presentations in assemblies before students cast their votes anonymously via ballot boxes, ensuring a fair and transparent election.

Supporting them are four additional senior Year 11 Parliament members, each representing one of the NGA Houses. Together, this senior team leads initiatives, gathers student feedback and works closely with school leaders to help shape the student experience.

Representation begins in tutor groups, where students elect two representatives from each tutor group, creating a team of 12 representatives in every year group. From these representatives, one Pupil Parliament Member is selected for Years 7-10. Applicants submit a written application to Parliament, which is anonymised before being reviewed and selected by the senior Year 11 team.

The NGA Pupil Parliament provides students with a genuine voice in school life and plays a key role in representing the views of the wider student body. Through leadership, collaboration and democratic participation, the NGA Pupil Parliament ensures that every student has the opportunity to contribute to the development of our school community; they plan whole school events, represent the student body at Senior Leadership meetings, and listen to and act on the concerns of their peers.
