ABOUT US

The council is made up of students who work together to address issues and concerns raised by their fellow students. They act as a liaison between the student body and the college management, providing a platform for students to voice their opinions and suggestions.

The Student Council is committed to making Blackpool Sixth a welcoming, inclusive, and supportive environment for all students.
