The Election: If I were Prime Minister...

May 06, 2015

Monday's assembly began with a quick recap on what a general election is and how it works. After discussing the purpose of the election, we discussed how people make choices about who they are going to vote for and discussed how manifestos outline the main priorities and beliefs of a political party. Having different ideas about how to make our country better means that people have to consider who they agree with before voting.

At Hacton, we celebrate that we all have our own ideas about how to make our country and school a better place. To end the assembly our pupils became Prime Ministers and shared their ideas about what they would do to make our country a better place if they were in charge.
