The student councilors have been experiencing problems with students lately who have been skipping class or going back to class late after recess. Below are three proposals carefully decided by the student councilors,

1st proposal is to ask the discipline teacher’s to patrol around the premises of the school especially around the basketball areas and canteens to look for student whom skipped classes or loitering without a valid pass from the respective teacher. If found the students are to be punished appropriately.

2nd proposal, student councilors are to plan a clear route system for the students in each class to take after any dismissal and the councilors are to follow them to class to make sure they settle down and wait until the respective subject teachers arrive.

3rd proposal, students are to be immediately fetched by their respective period teacher’s at any dismissal and are to take them to class. When they get there, they are to take attendance and are to make sure all students are present.


As a student council President representing the student council body, write a proposal to your principal to tell her about the current situation the student councilors are facing. Suggest to her which is the best choice to implement and the reason for choosing it and also the state the reasons for rejecting the rest.

Set your letter out correctly, in clear, accurate English, and use an appropriate tone which will persuade her to improve the current situation.
