Student Council
The Student Council at Foundation School is an integral part of our community, providing students with a platform to voice their opinions, take on leadership roles, and contribute to the betterment of the school environment. The council is a democratically elected body representing the student community, working closely with school administration to enhance the overall student experience.
The council is a democratically elected body, giving every student the opportunity to choose their representatives in a fair and transparent manner.
