Ministers and school representatives are set to meet later in the first Jersey school board network of the new term.
Meetings, which take place up to six times a year, allow primary and secondary school boards to formulate policy directly with the government.
The Department of Children, Young People, Education and Skills (CYPES) said the inaugural event for the term will focus on safety and digital wellbeing.
Minister for Teaching and Lifelong Learning Rob Ward congratulated all students elected to their school boards, calling it a “great responsibility as well as a fantastic opportunity.”
Ward, who is set to attend the event along with Children and Families Minister Richard Vibert and Assistant Minister for Children and Families Malc Fehry, said: “I am excited to see the ideas and leadership you will bring and I look forward to working with you through the school board network.”
Vibert said the network has grown into a “powerful, student-led forum.”
“I am proud to support a network that puts young voices at the center of decision-making and I look forward to hearing more from them as they focus on safety, which is one of our priorities for children, young people and family planning,” he added.
Students will also review Jersey's new game plan, ensuring it reflects their current needs and experiences.
Cypes said that in the last term, students had helped redesign the Millennium Town Park playground, tested and sampled the school's hot meals and submitted hundreds of questions to ministers.
