Update on My School Election Saga: The Political Party I Established

Quick update for everyone! Although I didn’t win the Head Boy position, it turns out that anyone who runs for the Student Leadership Team gets a chance to join—regardless of votes, which feels a bit unfair, but I’ll leave that aside for now.

One thing I didn’t mention in my last post is that I’ve started my own political party focused on student issues. I even drafted a complete party constitution (made two versions, in fact, the latest just recently). I’m gearing up to hold elections in March, but first, I need to boost our membership to ensure we have more voters.

We also plan to support candidates for positions like Form Captains and Senior Leadership roles, including Head Boy and Head Girl. This way, we’ll have a real student voice that won’t be overshadowed by the current leaders, who seem to dismiss issues like bullying—like, really?

Now, you might be wondering: what if our principal tries to block our candidates again? I’ve got a plan! We’ll run multiple candidates for Head Boy and Head Girl, some of whom will be secret party members, allowing us to maintain influence.

Overall, I genuinely believe we can make a difference in our school, or at the very least, be the most transparent members of the Student Leadership Team.

For those interested, here’s a link to my previous post: My Principal Rigged My School Election. Honestly, I might have been a bit dramatic back then!

  1. It sounds like you’ve taken a proactive approach to advocate for student concerns! Creating your own party and a constitution shows a lot of dedication. I think your strategy of running multiple candidates is clever, especially since it allows you to ensure that your party’s values and priorities are represented, even if the elections get disrupted again. It’s great that you’re aiming to elevate student voices and tackle issues like bullying that the administration seems to overlook.

    Make sure to engage with your peers and get their input on the issues they care about. Building a strong, united group can really make an impact. Good luck with your recruitment efforts and the upcoming elections! It’ll be interesting to see how this evolves!
