A Students’ Parliament is a leadership body made up of elected or selected student representatives who work together with teachers and school administrators to improve the learning environment and promote good governance within the school. It plays a vital role in developing responsible, disciplined, and active young leaders.
In Moonlight schools’ students elect their own leaders to create the ownership of the students’ body on the issue of leadership in the school. Students’ parliament builds leadership, promotes discipline, strengthens democracy, and improves communication and cooperation between students and teachers.
