Save the Date: "Voices of Tomorrow" Youth Conference | Friday 3 November 2023

Dear Headteachers,  

We're inviting schools across the county to join us for the "Voices of Tomorrow" youth conference. Save the date: November 3rd, 2023, for a day of discussions and connections. 

At this event, students can share their ideas and thoughts on important topics with their peers. The conference offers various workshops and networking opportunities aimed at sparking valuable conversations and collaboration. 

We encourage schools to inform students, parents, and staff about this opportunity. "Voices of Tomorrow" is a chance for students to engage, connect, and discuss critical issues. 

Get ready for a day where students' voices make a difference, connections are formed, and inspiration flows. Watch out for more updates as we prepare for this meaningful experience for students. 

We would really appreciate your support! If you need further information, please contact the team here: childfriendly@warwickshire.gov.uk

Warwickshire Youth Council Elections 2024

Warwickshire County Council are getting ready to run the Warwickshire Youth Council Elections 2024 and this is an invitation for your school to become involved.  

The good news is that the whole election process will be done ONLINE from NOMINATING CANDIDATES to the VOTING itself. As you may already be aware Warwickshire Youth Council Members represent the views and voice of children and young people living in Warwickshire. They have already completed some impressive pieces of work. The weblink below explains in more detail how your school can become involved and support the Election Process. 

There are 2 stages to the Election Process: the Nomination Stage (when young people can put their name forward to become a candidate in the election) and the Voting Stage (when school students can vote online for up to 3 of the candidates). 

The Nominations Stage is open from 18th September to 20th November 2023.  

If you would like the team to attend a school assembly to explain more about the Warwickshire Youth Council and Election Process, please contact Davinder Shergill: davindershergill@warwickshire.gov.uk
