Student Council Speeches

By:  Susan Dugdale  

How to write a winning speech: a template, guidelines, plus example speeches

Student Council Speeches mark the end of an election campaign.

Will yours be successful?

The final answer is in the hands of your fellow students. It's entirely their decision.

However, up until they mark their voting papers 'yes' or 'no' you have the potential to make their choice of candidate for the upcoming year 'you'.

  • Who you are - your name, your place or grade in the school, and maybe, your hobbies or interests, and the clubs or teams you're a member of. For example, Amnesty International, the speech and debate club, cross-country and basketball. And if you've used a campaign slogan work it in. It'll jog people's memories.

Points to consider BEFORE you write your speech

Image: various colored hands waving. Text: - vote me.

You'll make a better job of completing the printable student council speech template if you  take the time to go through the points below.

And then, read the student council speech examples, before you start to write.

Research the role

Think about your audience, what tone or choice of vocabulary is best suited to them.

Avoid trying to impress with either 'big' words or use of slang. Both are traps! Be yourself. Authentic. Real.

Keep your language conversational rather than overly formal and use smaller rather than large sentences.

Try using active rather than passive words. These convey enthusiasm. For examples, see this page on using action verbs . You'll discover how to go from boring bla bla bland to dynamic excitement.

What 'hook' will you use to get them to listen? Humor? Humor is good if it is relevant and inclusive rather than exclusive. (No 'in' jokes!).

Your goal in the role you want

Avoid setting up expectations that you will deliver beyond your capability. :-)

It might be very tempting, but can you really reduce school hours, increase academic standards, introduce a range of exciting new extracurricular activities, as well as have a 'green day' and a movie night every month? Please keep it real!

Your credibility or qualifications

Now is not the time either to be shy or arrogantly big-headed! Let the audience know how right you are for the role you want.

Set yourself apart from other candidates by sharing compelling personal stories or anecdotes that both support your pitch, and show you understand the key issues that matter to your fellow students.

Your school's requirements

If your speech does not meet pre- established criteria in any way you may find it is returned to you edited. It's safer to find out what those criteria are BEFORE writing to avoid having to re-write or worse, being disqualified entirely.

Mockery and personal insults are not clever. They boomerang back on you, letting your audience know you're not to be trusted and neither are you ready for leadership.

Readily acknowledging the skill and expertise of your fellow candidates sincerely in a way that doesn't demean yourself, or them, shows an open mind and maturity.

Aim to have your speech ready BEFORE the deadline.

Give yourself time to prepare thoroughly, including time to review of your opponents' campaigns. That can be very useful for seeing their strengths as well as their weaknesses, which you can then respond to in your own material.

Student Council President speech example 

Here's a sample student council speech. I've written it from the perspective of someone running for President.

As you read it, imagine it said aloud. That will help you get the rhythm and flow of language. The speech is between 3 - 4 minutes long, depending on how quickly you speak.

Vote Sophia Clarke for Student Council President

Image: multi-colored hands waving. Text: YES! Sophia Clarke for President Student Council.

"I’ve got a question for you. I’m not asking you to shout your answer out, or raise your hand. All I’m asking is that you give it room in your mind. Let it sit for a bit, and have a think about it.

My question is – do you believe like I do, that all of us deserve the opportunity to make the best of ourselves? Not second best, 3 rd , or even, highly commended. The BEST.

I’m Sophia Clarke. I’m in the 12 th  grade, and I’m running for president. My vision is that each student is enabled to develop the skills and confidence to become the bigger, better version of themselves. The best they can be.  Regardless of who they are, and what they need to achieve that.

It’s an audacious goal. Some would say an idealistic, rather than a realistic, one.

However I say it’s awesome. And that you’re intelligent people who realize that reaching any goal starts with taking the first step.

So let me remind you why choosing me, Sophia Clarke, for president, is also choosing a better chance for yourself, and everyone else to grow.

I know you, and I know your needs well. I’ve served on your behalf in multiple roles through my years here; secretary, auditor, public relations officer, and have successfully taken on multiple issues. You’ll know some of those through directly benefiting from them.

It was me who was behind the push to get a regular anti-bullying program running throughout the school. That was two years ago, and now the  Teens Against Bullying  message underpins what we expect and strive for in our every day dealings with each other.

We know incidents of bullying are far fewer as a result. As our orange tee shirts say we ‘choose kindness, acceptance and inclusion’ for each other, and our selves.

Who has been involved in our mentoring-homework program? Either as a buddy-tutor or as a student getting a helping hand? And who, like me, is passionate about making sure that everybody gets a fair go?

In the past year, under my watch that program has escalated. We have over 50% more tutors across more subject areas and more students taking up the offer of help. That is a fabulous outcome for everybody. Truly win-win.

A tick in the box alongside my name is a tick for the continued growth of those programs. Their value is proven. They allow each of us to grow and experience the strength and confidence that comes from knowing that we can make a positive difference in other people’s lives as well as our own.

When you vote me for President you get my capacity to organize, to liaise, to listen and to speak, working for the benefit of everybody.

A 'yes' for me is a 'yes' for appreciating and celebrating diversity.

A 'yes' for me, Sophia Clarke for President, is 'yes' to a better you.

And together that is a 'yes' to a better life, and a better school, for all of us."

Student Council Vice President speech example

Like the speech above, this one runs to approximately 4 minutes when said aloud. Try it and see.

Image: poster for student council election. Text: YES! Jason Hull for Vice President, Student Council

Nod your head if you've heard of the phrase '2nd fiddle' or '2IC'.

What about 'sidekick'?

Not booting a ball in from a sideline but a trusty partner to whoever it is who has the leading role. Like Robin is for Batman.

Or like, {name of your country's Vice President or Prime Minister} is for {name of country's President or Prime Minister} or {name of your school's Vice Principal} is for {name of your school's Principal}!

Well, that's what I aspire to - to become the trusty, tried and true sidekick to the President on our student council.

My name is Jason Hull. I'm in Grade 12 and proudly standing in front of you today as a candidate for the role of Vice President. Yes, I am asking you to give me something of immense value - your vote.

I know what the issues, here at {name of school} are. As part of my campaign, I've interviewed you, and listened. I promise your ideas will be acted on.

Afterall I've trained for this role, put in the time. You know, I know how to get things done.

Last year I served as Secretary and the year before that I was a representative for the committee - proof that I'm committed to bettering our school environment not just for you, but for everybody!

With your support, I'll be your go-to guy when you want to make sure that your opinions and feedback reach the decision-makers.

One of my main goals as your Vice President is to champion your initiatives: amongst others, that's the library extensions you told me about, the desire for healthier food choices in our cafeteria, and the urgent need to increase and diversify the workforce and out-reach opportunities that so many of you mentioned.

Whether you're passionate about improving our school facilities, or enhancing our community involvement, I'll be there to guide and help you. 

In the role of Vice President, I will work alongside the President fulfilling my duties to the best of my ability. 

Together, we'll make sure that your concerns, and hopes are not just heard but actively pursued. Not 'I' will make sure, but 'we'.

There is no 'I' in we, and that too, is a prerequisite of the Vice President's position: the capacity to put aside ego and to work productively for the good of all.

Because together, we, the Vice President, the President and the other council members, are stronger and can achieve more.

The Vice President role may be a support act but it's a vital one.  To succeed in it, collaboration is key. I promise to work hand in hand not only with the President but also with the entire student council team, our teachers, and our administration on your behalf.

Unity is strength. More than ever, we need to nurture understanding, kindness and respect for each other. Regardless of your grade, interests, or background, I want every one of you to feel valued and heard.

That's a goal many would say is impossible.

However, I say, we need to be the difference we want to see in the world. And to borrow those famous words of Helen Keller's: "Alone we can do so little. Together we can so much."

It would be an honor to be your voice, your eyes and your ears as Vice President.

So, I ask you, will you trust me to have your best interests at heart? Will you enable me to work on your behalf?

And are you willing to give me, Jason Hull, your vote for best sidekick, aka. Vice President?

I'll take those smiles, as a 'Yes'.

Your completed outline will provide both the structure and the content you need to efficiently write your speech.  

After you've finished writing your speech

Now that you've finished writing, you're ready to begin work on your delivery: how you present the speech to your audience.

The first step in that process is making sure your speech fits comfortably into whatever time you've been allocated.

After that comes rehearsal. The information you need for both steps is below.

Timing and word count

Student Council Speeches are generally brief: around 1-4 minutes long which isn't a lot of time! That's between approximately 150 - 600 words at an average speaking rate of 150 words per minute.

To be safe say your speech out loud as if you were delivering it for real and time it. In some schools going overtime can result in being disqualified.

Going faster to fit everything in

Please do not be tempted to say it faster to get everything you planned said. As a strategy it doesn't work. You'll end up gabbling: speaking far too quickly and people won't be able to understand what you're saying.

Cutting out extra material

If you have got too much material for the time limit, cut it. Choose the least important ideas to let go of first. Then move on to rephrasing to reduce the number of words used to express a point.

When you think it's done, repeat the test. Say it out loud as if you were actually giving it, and time it.

If you're now within the allotted time, you are ready for rehearsal.

For more about word count see: how many words per minute in a speech

How to rehearse your speech

Round button -multi-colored hands waving in affirmation - the word "rehearse" across image.

Please, please  rehearse your speech ! Do not be tempted to wing it. The more you rehearse the easier it will be to deliver it well.

Remember it is only 1 to 4 minutes long! In that time your goal is to have your audience ready to vote for you.

You can help them make that decision by being confident and prepared. You will show that through:

  • your speaking style  - natural, sincere, fluent, understandable (clear and able to be heard without straining)
  • your body language  - relaxed, open gestures, good eye contact and smiling
  • your personal grooming or presentation  because how you look 'speaks' too. Make sure that your clothing and general grooming supports your speech because, like it or not, you will be judged on both!

 Videoed Student Council speech examples  

How do other people handle a Student Council speech? What's their content and delivery like?

Are they funny? Formal? Too hurried? Confident? Familiar with the audience?

It can help to look at what others have done. Even if it's only to decide their way will not be your way!

How to Write a Student Election Speech

Brandi laren, 25 jun 2018.

How to Write a Student Election Speech

If you are a leader and aspire to inspire others, running for student government is an ideal choice. Even the process of entering an election will give you a first-hand lesson in leadership, voting, elections and politics. It doesn't matter if you are running for president, vice president or secretary of the student council, you will have to prepare a speech and present it to your classmates. This speech, along with other campaigning tactics, like putting up posters, can make a big difference.

  • Introduction
  • Main Points

1 Introduction

Start your speech by welcoming your classmates and thanking them for attending. Then, introduce yourself, describe what office you're running for and quickly state why you're the best candidate. For example, "Good morning, everyone. My name is John Smith and I'm running for president of the student council. As students, we are ready for change in our school. I am the person who can help. As president of student council, I would fight for better school lunches, more after-school activities and more field trips." Talk briefly about some of your other leadership positions at school and why they have prepared you for the position. Use your personality to draw in your classmates and ignite their interest in learning more about you.

2 Main Points

Focus on the student body's interests. What are some things that students have been requesting at your school? What have they been complaining about? If you could improve five things about your school, what would they be? Use these elements in your speech. Let them know that you've been paying attention. For example, "We are tired of bad school lunches. As president of the student council, I will fight to get us better meals." Try not to make false promises. Talk about school supplies and events and other things that you are more likely to have control over. State these things briefly in your speech. If you have a catchy slogan you've been using on your posters around the school, don't forget to use that, throughout your speech.

Conclude by letting your classmates know that if you are elected, you'll be working for them. Tell them that you'll always be open to their ideas on how the school can be improved and be more fun and enjoyable. Your campaign speech should only be about one to two minutes long, so make sure you keep your points short and meaningful. Think of a creative ending that will serve as a punctuation mark and leave your classmates wanting more.

School council speech ideas | primary school.

A Practical Guide & Downloadable Worksheet

Are you ready to inspire your students to become active members of your school community? Setting up a school council is an excellent start, and a crucial step is preparing students for their school council speeches . This is a fantastic opportunity for young minds to voice their ideas and contribute to school life. In this blog, I'll share practical and engaging tips to make the preparation process educational, inclusive, and fun.

1. Emphasising Inclusivity: Get everyone involved!

Firstly and most importantly, every student must feel that they can participate. School council elections (just like real elections) should be accessible and fair, and allow every child to express their ideas. When it comes to campaigning for votes, this can really come into its own. Whether it's through a traditional speech, a creative song, or even a piece of art, each student should have the freedom to choose how they want to present themselves and their strategy. My advice would be to avoid giving the classic "school council speech templates" to all. These templates can be on hand as a scaffold, when and if candidates want to express themselves in that way. Instead, have a bank of ‘inspiration’ for your pupils to look into - such as persuasive speech videos, talking about how many local politicians campaign door-to-door and showcasing some of the posters and media that they may have seen in their local area.

2. Generating Ideas:

When it comes to thinking about school council speech ideas , encourage students to think about what matters to them. What changes do they want to see in their school? What are their passions or concerns? Guide them to make a list of topics they feel strongly about – this often leads to the most sincere and impactful speeches.

If your pupils are younger, or unlikely to be sure of which issues they are passionate about, this worksheet could get the ideas flowing. It asks them to think about how important different issues are to them, such as the environment, community and friendship, and charity and helping other. And for pupils who are passionate about all of them? Ask them to number them from 1-5!

School Council Worksheet

3. Structuring the Speech:

Whether students decide to go for a traditional speech for school council or a performing arts show, a good strategy should have a clear formula. Teach your students to start with an introduction about who they are and why they're running for the council. Then, they should move on to outlining their main ideas or proposals, and conclude with a compelling closing statement that summarises their vision and appeals to their fellow students. Always present this as guidance and not necessity! Some of your pupils will want to start with a bold statement including their intent and move onto discussing who they are and what they wish to bring to the school council. Remember what we said in our last post, you want the school council to run itself and flow freely with the children’s guidance.

4. Encouraging Practice:

Like any skill, public speaking improves with practice. Encourage students to rehearse their school council speech or performance in front of a mirror, family members, or friends. This not only boosts their confidence but also helps them refine their delivery and pacing. It may also be a great time to reiterate the importance of some KS2 reading objectives: intonation, tone and volume!

children talking in school

Guiding students in preparing a speech for the school council election is an incredibly rewarding experience. By focusing on inclusivity, idea generation, structure, practice, and creativity, we can help them develop not only their speech but also their confidence and leadership skills. Remember, every school council speech idea that comes from a child is a step towards nurturing a responsible, articulate, and engaged member of the community. creating a supportive/non-judgemental environment/culture that makes children feels comfortable to present their speech to their peers. Let's celebrate and support their efforts every step of the way!

Being a member of the student council can help you help your school. However, it takes hard work to get into the student council . You need to craft a good speech that gives your classmates incentives to vote for you.

Sample Speeches

short speech for school representative elections

Writing the Introduction

Step 1 Find an attention-grabbing opening statement.

  • Do not merely start by saying, "My name is ___ and I'm running for student council." Your classmates will already know as much and this is not really a unique statement. There will be time to state the basic information after you've got the class's attention. [1] X Research source
  • You can open with a question. Something like, "If there was one thing you could change about this school, what would it be?" Or a question that adds some humor , like, "I know what you're thinking. Why should I listen to this person?" and then proceed to lay out your credentials. Quotes on leadership, power, and guidance would also make good openings. However, make sure to double-check your sources and especially if you're finding quotes online. Many online quote databases, like Quote Garden or Brainy Quote, sometimes attribute quotes to the wrong sources. [2] X Research source
  • If you're stuck, look up and read famous speeches. You can find many speeches from presidents, world leaders, civil rights activists, and others online. Pay attention to how they opened their speeches and ask yourself, "Was this interesting? Do I want to keep reading/listening? Why?" [3] X Research source

Step 2 State the basics.

  • State your name and grade in school. This may feel somewhat unnecessary if you go to a small school, but it's considered a formality. If you're missing this part of the speech, you may end up looking sloppy in comparison to other students. [5] X Research source
  • State what you want. That is, what you're running for. Do you want to be the president , vice president , treasurer, secretary? Even if you think most students are aware of what position you're running for, make sure you state it here to remind them. [6] X Research source
  • Try to keep this section brief as it's not as important as your qualifications and plans to improve the school . Even one sentence would suffice. For example, "My name is Ramona Hart, I'm in the 11th grade, and I'm running for treasurer of the student council."

Step 3 List your qualifications.

  • Any accomplishments relevant to the position warrant mentioning here. If you're running for secretary, for example, talk about your summer job filing papers in your uncle's law firm. If you're running for student council president, talk about your leadership experience being captain of the swim team. [7] X Research source
  • While this section is important, try to keep it minimal. A couple of sentences laying out your qualifications is enough as the body of your speech is where you should spend the most time. For example, let's go back to the above example. From there, we could say, "I am currently enrolled in advanced placement algebra and I have been an honor roll student for three years. This knowledge of numbers and diligence qualifies me to have responsibility for finances for our student council." [8] X Research source

Writing the Body of the Speech

Step 1 State your main ideas on how to improve the school.

  • You should list your ideas and then expand on them later in the body. It might take a bit of research to figure out what you want to change. Ask around the school, talking to students and teachers, and see where there's room for improvement. What are the concerns of the students? What are people happy with regarding the school? What would they like to see change? Asking these questions can help you get a sense of your audience and community.
  • Remember, you should not make promises you cannot keep. Do not say anything just to get elected. While many students might want gum-chewing policies eliminated or for the lunch period to run twice as long, this is probably not necessary or possible. Try to focus on areas that seem important to keep your school running safely and efficiently. Concerns about things like bullying , academic standards, and extracurricular activities should be your concern over fun and games. [10] X Research source
  • A good opening statement for your body would state the causes important to you and what you plan to do about them. For example, if you were running for president, you could say something like, "I understand we need to improve how we handle bullying, increase interest in extracurricular activities, and expand access to AP courses throughout the school. As your president, I would work to bring in speakers to talk about sensitivity in the classroom, increase advertising for basketball games and quiz bowl tournaments, and start a tutoring program to help students struggling with certain subjects." [11] X Research source

Step 2 Find support for those ideas.

  • Using the school library or computers, figure out the best means to tackle certain problems many schools face. How have other schools dealt with bullying? Poor test scores? Low interest in extracurricular activities? What can you reasonably do as a student council member to address these problems? [12] X Research source
  • You do not have to have a point-by-point plan laid out, but a few sentences on some preliminary ideas can help you stand out from your peers. People are more inclined to vote for someone who's thought about how to solve problems in addition to identifying problems. [13] X Research source

Step 3 Keep your ideas short but very strongly worded.

Ending with a Strong Conclusion

Step 1 Reiterate your main points briefly.

  • Do summarize, briefly, your qualifications but do not put the main focus on them. This is where you should sincerely state your passion. Students should not just vote for you because you'd do a good job but because you genuinely care about the school. State your passion for your community and how much you want to see other students succeed. Lots of students have high qualifications. You can set yourself apart by being a candidate who really cares. [16] X Research source

Step 3 Ask the audience for their vote.

  • Research what other student council speeches are like on video websites. This could help give you ideas.

Student Council Speech

short speech for school representative elections

So you feel that you have what it takes to be part of your student council in your school. You got the guts, responsibility, wit, and charm to grab the position you are vying for from other students who are as qualified as you. Even if you are sure of yourself, you need to convince every student in your school that will be an effective officer if you are elected. And one way to convince your fellow students to vote for you is through your speech .

What is Student Council Speech? A student council speech is a presentation given by a student who is running for a position on the student council, which is a group that represents the interests and ideas of the student body at a school. In this speech, the candidate shares their ideas, goals, and plans to improve the school and address student concerns. They aim to persuade their classmates to vote for them by highlighting their leadership qualities, past achievements, and specific proposals for making positive changes within the school community. This speech is an important opportunity for candidates to connect with their peers and show why they are the best choice for the position.

When writing a student council speech, you must be able to persuade your schoolmates to trust in your abilities and your platforms. (If you need more tips on writing persuasive speeches , see this one). Remember, you are not running just for popularity votes or to earn yourself a good credential in your achievements. You are running for a certain position (whether you’ll be a president, treasurer, secretary, etc.) to serve the student body, to represent them when they want their needs to be attended to and to make better changes in your school. So first you need to make your speech sound persuasive, but not aggressive. Start writing your speech weeks ahead before you deliver your speech.

Example of Student Council Speech

“Good morning, students and teachers of Springfield High! My name is Jamie Lee, a sophomore, and I’m excited to run for the position of Secretary on our Student Council.   Why am I standing here today? Because I believe in change, in improvement, and most importantly, in us—as a student body—to make Springfield High not just a school, but a community where every voice is heard and valued. My experience as class representative last year taught me the importance of organization, communication, and dedication—qualities essential for the role of Secretary.   My main goal is to enhance our school’s spirit and involvement through better-organized events, clearer communication between the student council and the student body, and by creating more opportunities for everyone to contribute their ideas and talents. I plan to introduce a monthly feedback session where you can share your thoughts and suggestions directly with the council.   But that’s not all. I want to work on making our school events, including dances, fundraisers, and spirit weeks, more memorable and inclusive. How? By working closely with clubs and sports teams to ensure our activities reflect the diverse interests and talents within our school.   I’m asking for your vote not just for me, but for the vision of a school where every student feels connected, involved, and proud to be a Springfield Hawk. Let’s make this year one of unity, fun, and achievement. Together, we can make a difference.   Thank you for considering me as your next Student Council Secretary. Let’s soar high, Hawks!”   This example of a student council speech uses a structured approach to convey the candidate’s motivations, qualifications, goals, and plans in a clear and engaging manner, effectively persuading classmates to lend their support.

From cultural awareness events to environmental projects, let’s turn our ideas into actions that benefit our entire community.   3. Mental Health Support: Mental health is a priority. I will work to expand counseling services, create safe spaces for open discussions, and promote stress-relief activities, ensuring every student’s well-being.   4. Interactive Learning: Let’s enhance our learning experience through interactive methods. I will advocate for technology integration, peer-to-peer tutoring, and hands-on projects that make education engaging and enjoyable.   5. Community Engagement: Our school is not just a building; it’s a part of our community. I will initiate partnerships with local organizations, organizing volunteer opportunities and outreach programs to give back and make a difference.   In closing, I am not just asking for your votes; I am asking for your trust. Together, let’s build a school where every student feels valued, heard, and supported. Join me in creating a future where unity inspires change.   Thank you.

I will establish regular open forums where students can voice their concerns, ideas, and suggestions. These forums will be a platform for change, where we can work together to make our school an even better place.   I’ll also implement an online suggestion box for those who may not be comfortable speaking up in person.

I promise to be your dedicated advocate, listening, acting, and ensuring that every student’s voice is heard.   Vote for change. Vote for me. Thank you.”

How to Write Student Council Speech

This is the most nerve-wracking part of your speech. So this part must be a good, no, great one. If for examples. you’re running for student council president don’t start just by merely introducing your name and telling them you are running for student council. You need to start your speech with a bang! Something that can catch the attention of your audience. Students are usually inattentive during these kinds of speeches so you need them to focus towards you. There are lots of creative ways to make a flashy opening. You can sing, rap, dance, act, do some comedy sketches, or anything that relates to the theme of your speech. However if you do not feel like performing live, you can still do some creative opening. You can use videos, power point presentation, music, or ask your friends to introduce you. You may also see introduction speech .

You can also open your speech by asking a question, whether if it is rhetorical or humorous. Here are some examples:

“So here is this person standing infront of you, asking you to for her. Why should you? You ask.”   “If there’s anything you can do something for the school to make it loads better, what will it be?”

You can also add quotes from famous people that correlates with your speech. Make sure you cite your quotes properly. Here are some examples of quotes from well known people that you can cite:

“Leadership is not about the next election. It’s about the next generation.” Simon Sinek   “I think leadership is service and there is power in that giving: to help people, to inspire, and motivate them to reach their fullest potential.” Denise Morrison   “You need an attitude of service. You’re not just serving yourself. You’re helping others to grow up and grow with them.” David Green

After your awesome introduction, you then proceed to state all about yourself. Describe yourself, the position you are running for and the reason why you are running. Tell your name and your grade in your school. This is important if you go to a school with a big population. Don’t ever skip this part of speech as this will be what the audience should remember when it’s time to vote for you. You may also see thank you speech .

No need to elaborate in this part of speech. A brief 1-2 sentences are enough. Example:

“Hello. My name is John Cheese and I will be running for President! My vision is change for the betterment of our school. I fight for equality for all the students in this institution.”

Next is the part where you will sell yourself by mentioning your qualifications. This is one way to persuade your fellow students that you are responsible enough to be part of the student council. Mention any accomplishments that are related to the position your are running for.

If you’re running for president, don’t list your accomplishments in stamp collecting. The accomplishments that you should cite are your leadership skills, whether you are the team captain of your football team or you’re the major in your drum and lyre corp. You can also mention your honors and awards. You may also see speech templates .

“I am currently the team captain of our baseball team and I have also been a member of the Boy Scouts. Currently, I am the president of our drama club.  I have also been an honor roll student for the past five years. I have been exposed to a lot of leadership training skills and I believe I am most qualified to be an efficient president in the student council.”

Writing the main point of your speech

Now that you have organize your introduction, it’s time to get to your ideas and how you should present them in front of the student body. This is the part where you will enumerate your platforms on how to improve the system in your school. Make sure that when you have laid out your platforms to the students you made some research. Ask the students, teachers, personnel on what areas that you should be improved.

Listen to what the students are concerned about. What are the changes that the students may want to see? What areas in your school you want to change to keep it running efficiently? You can also research ways on how to deal with school problems. Read books and ask some experts to help you. And find out how you, a member of the student council can address these problems. Once you already knew this, you will know what will be your platforms. A nice opening statement is to state out the causes that are important to you and what are your plans to make it better. You may also see special occasion speech .

“Bullying and discrimination has been more prevalent in this institution for the past year. As a student, I am disappointed that some of my fellow schoolmates has been the forerunners of this ugly way of treating people. And because of this, I would work out to invite speakers to talk about sensitivity in school, open more clubs for students to join, and start a tutorial program to aid students who are having a hard time in their classes.”

Keep in mind that you need to present your ideas briefly but persuasive enough to move your audience. If you need an inspiration, refer to Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address. His speech was short but full of key points that got his message across to his audience. You may also see self introduction speech .

short speech for school representative elections

End it with a memorable conclusion

1. Once you’ve stated your ideas effectively, it’s time for your conclusion. When you get there, go back to mention your plans as a president or a treasurer and relate it to your main points that you’ve mentioned a while ago. You may also see speech examples for students .

“With my experience in leadership training and in my service to my team members, I know I can be a great leader to each of you. I promise to do my best to stop discrimination and bullying and to increase the interest of the students to be more open to each other’s diversities.” 

2. Don’t forget to highlight your qualifications one last time. They key to this is to sincerely state that it is your passion to serve your students. You may also see tribute speech .

“I am a passionate advocate against discrimination. And to change that attitude starts here in our school. I want everyone to be accepting of everyone’s differences. I vision an institution with good relations between students and faculty members. I care about each of you and your right to be treated fairly…”

3. Of course, don’t forget to ask the audience to vote for you. Here is the part where you will beg your students to vote for you. Their vote is important for you to win the election. Ask with genuine humility for the students to vote for you. You may also see informative speech .

“I ask nothing but your votes. I would be deeply honored if you’ll vote for me on the election day.” 

Now that you completed your speech, see to it if it’s good enough for you to use. Ask a friend, a family member, or a teacher to read your speech. Ask them what areas you need to improve. Ask for a constructive criticism, even if it hurts.

It’s important for you to learn to improve your speech and to be open-minded towards critical suggestions. Remember you are running for the student council. Make yourself a best example of a responsible student that your fellow students can look up to. Additionally, debates may come up in before the election day, so make yourself familiarize with debate speeches .

Write a Speech for School Elections

If you’re running for office in school elections, delivering your candidate speech can be one of the most important — and nerve-wracking — parts of the whole process. One of the keys to delivering a good speech is writing a good speech. Yes, there are school election speech templates on the internet that let you just paste in your name, etc., [1] but a speech written by you, that represents you, holds a much better chance of making an impact on your classmates/voters. If you take the time to write a speech that presents a clear, concise message in an engaging manner that reflects your individual personality, you might just win, and regardless, you'll know you gave it your best shot.

  • 1.1 Crafting Your Message
  • 1.2 Structuring Your Speech
  • 1.3 Preparing for Delivery
  • 1.4 Sample Speeches
  • 3 Related Articles
  • 4 Sources and Citations

Crafting Your Message

  • Right now, it doesn’t matter if your ideas are not feasible or even downright silly — your desire to outlaw homework on weekends, for instance — just put them down on paper.
  • Then, start to whittle down your list to about three to five key points of emphasis — adding healthy food options at lunch, expanding a tutoring program, or working to reduce bullying, perhaps — and think about how they connect to your overall plan as a candidate.
  • Slogans don’t just fit nicely on campaign signs, they provide a quick glimpse of your personality and your plans.
  • They can be lighthearted (“The Right Manuel for the Job”) or serious (“Your Voice for Change”), focused on one issue (“Save the Spring Formal”) or aimed more broadly (“Let’s Fly Higher Together”). The slogan should suit you, make people think of you when they hear or see it, and give them an idea of how you’ll serve their interests.
  • When writing a slogan, avoid negative language. The best slogans are positive and forward-thinking.
  • First things first, find out how much time you have to give your speech. School election speeches are often limited to only 1-2 minutes, which is only about 150-250 words. [4] If so, you need to be laser-focused on what you want to say and how you want to say it. You may have to further cut down your campaign ideas to two or three, or maybe even just one for the speech.
  • Even if you don’t have a short time limit, people rarely complain that speeches are too short. Don’t waste time on unreasonable promises, unnecessary details, or anything else that detracts from the directness of your message.
  • Establish the need you see, what you believe can be done to address it, and why you are the person to do it. [5]
  • You might just assume that the popular kids win all the school elections, but often it is the person who seems most genuinely interested in doing the job who earns the most votes. It is easier to express that enthusiasm when being true to who you are.
  • Your English teacher won’t be grading your speech text, so utilize a more conversational tone and worry less about grammar rules. Use short sentences and even sentence fragments to keep your message fresh and clear throughout the speech. [7]
  • You need to build a rapport, a sense of connection, with the audience very quickly and hold it throughout the speech. Slogans and simply-stated goals suit this need, and so too does a speech that doesn’t lose the audience along the way with long or complicated sentences, jargon, or unnecessary asides.

Structuring Your Speech

  • Give a few details about why you're the right person for the position. This doesn't have to be your whole resume, but a solid detail or two about your past responsibilities or personal traits will help you "sell" yourself as the right candidate. [8]
  • Plant your slogan in this introduction. Make them associate that phrase with you and the plans you are about to lay out in the body of the speech.
  • Something as simple as “Hi. I’m Jane Thomas, and I want to be your class president because I am dedicated to ‘Making Butler High Better Together’” can work.
  • Or, if better suited to your personality: “Some people say that Leon Lawson is too wild and not serious enough to be vice-president. Well, I am Leon Lawson, and I say that I’m ‘Seriously Wild’ about shaking things up in our student government.”
  • This is one of your chances to build a rapport with your audience. You want them to feel like all of you are on the same page, facing the same issues, and seeking solutions together.
  • For instance: “Bullying is an epidemic at Adams High School. Odds are that you have been bullied, seen someone being bullied, or even been a bully yourself. We can all do better.”
  • When stating the issue, avoid mudslinging or negative comments aimed at a particular person or group. Even when you're talking about something you want to change, keep your comments framed positively. This will reflect well on your candidacy and encourage others to see you as someone dedicated to fixing issues, not blaming others for them.
  • If you’re running for re-election or have held a different office, talk about a few things you have done and a few you will do. Make it clear how they all link together. For example, "As my time as President of Spanish Club shows, I can manage a team of people to achieve common goals. I will use this experience in pursuing change at our school."
  • Make your actions sound active. Use active verbs to describe what you have done/will do. Some examples include: “pursue,” “follow,” “take up,” “initiate,” “present,” “represent,” “create,” “build,” and “lead.” [9]
  • Go back to your slogan somewhere in the brief conclusion. Such repetition can help tie everything together.
  • For example: “We all know that there are too many cliques and factions that divide us as students here at West Branch High. This Friday, please consider voting for me, Ben Davis, for student council. I’ll make it my number one job to bring all West Branch Eagles together so we can ‘Fly High as One.’”
  • Consider, perhaps, a simple sentence near the end along the lines of: “I have several additional ideas for ways to bring back more Tiger pride to our school, and I would love to hear your ideas as well.”

Preparing for Delivery

  • Practice in front of a mirror, in front of your cat, and in front of anyone who will listen. Record yourself and play it back to get a better sense of your tone and pace.
  • If permitted, practice giving the speech in the location where you will present the real one. Get a feel for the room and the podium so you’ll be that much more comfortable come speech day. [9]
  • Practice your speech often enough that you only need to have some notes for reference. Look down only occasionally, as needed, and practice looking around the room. You don’t necessarily have to make direct eye contact with anyone, just make it seem as though you are.
  • You also, however, don’t want to sound as though you have simply memorized every word of your speech and are now regurgitating it. You want to know the speech, not just the words, so that you can seamlessly adjust to a misstated phrase or an unexpected opportunity during the speech.
  • You want to be “real,” to look and act like the fellow student the audience knows — maybe just an extra-polished, comfortable, and confident version of your “real” self.
  • Rely on whatever relaxation techniques work for you to get ready for your performance. If that means employing the old trick of imagining the audience naked, go for it — maybe just watch who you tell about having used it!

  • If you make a mistake while giving your speech, don't panic. Laugh it off and move on. This will show that you are flexible and adaptable, and will encourage others to see you as someone who can meet challenges without losing her cool.

Read Speech on Election on Vedantu

Indian Elections are one of the most important events in the Indian political calendar. Held every five years, they are a chance for the people of India to choose their representatives and government. The Election Commission of India is an independent body that oversees all aspects of the election process. It is responsible for ensuring that elections are free and fair and that the rules and regulations are followed.

The Election Commission of India was established in 1950, a few years after India became an independent country. It is headed by the Chief Election Commissioner, who is appointed by the President of India. The other members of the commission are appointed by the government.

The commission is responsible for all aspects of the election process since the vote is direct, secret and universal for every citizen of India over 18. It encourages voting amongst all sections of society including women, minorities and citizens living abroad.

The first general elections were held in 1952-1953 to choose members of the Lok Sabha (lower house) and state assemblies. Over time, voting has also become mandatory in India.

The Election Commission of India has come in for criticism in the past, most notably during the 2002 Gujarat elections. However, it has also been praised for its handling of recent elections, including the 2014 Lok Sabha elections.

The Constitution of India guarantees every citizen the right to vote without fear or favor. The Election Commission of India is responsible for ensuring that this right is exercised in a free and fair manner.

People vote in India every five years to elect Members of Parliament (MPs) and members of the state legislative assemblies. The Election Commission of India is charged with overseeing all aspects of the election process, from deciding election dates to enforcing rules and regulations. It encourages voting among citizens including women, minorities and citizens living abroad.

The election process begins 18 months before a vote is to be held when the Election Commission of India decides on where polling stations will be located. It then begins to prepare for the elections by recruiting staff and training them in election procedures. The commission also prepares the electoral rolls or list of registered voters.

The essay describes the process of Indian elections and how the Election Commission of India oversees it. It also highlights some of the criticism that the commission has faced in the past.

An election is one of the most important pillars of democracy and it is that process through which people can choose their representatives as per their choice which they feel has the capability to form a better government and to perform actions in the favor of the development and national interest. In this, we will be covering a speech on the election. This will be helpful for you in writing speeches in your English writing section if you ever got topics such as speech for election, speech for election in school or college, etc.

Thus, it will be helpful in all these cases.

Speech For Election In School - Long  

A very warm good morning to our worthy Principal and respected teachers and all the students present here. I am ( write your name here ) from Class ( mention your class or section ). Today I got an opportunity to deliver a speech on the election.

The process through which people can choose their representatives is called elections for example the process through which members of parliament are being chosen. Once Abraham Lincoln said the words which are "of the people, by the people, for the people" which means people of a democratic country can choose their government by themselves without any pressure. They are free to vote for any candidate according to their preferences in order to perform the required actions to make the government and to run the country.

Elections play a major role in democracy as they are important for the development of a democratic country like India or any other nation in which people have the right to choose their government. In India, after every five years elections are held. The system of the first-past-the-post electoral system is used by the Lok Sabha and Vidhan sabha. The candidates do promotions of their party and give a speech for the election campaign in the public. Then in each area, electors can cast their votes according to their choice, and the candidate who gets more votes will be announced as a winner.

There are merits and demerits of the elections. Elections give every party a chance to compete with each other equally. The candidate does work properly so that they want to be in everyone's eyes and win the elections. Through elections, actual power remains in the hands of the people. If they can select any representative or party and allow them to form the government and that government does not work in favor of the progress of the country, then the same people have the power to throw the government from its position in the next election. The demerits of the elections are that some parties clash with each other as they do not want to see another one reach that place. From this, some people also harm others and put pressure on the people to support their party so that they will be in power. They also use improper ways to win the elections like giving bribes to people, giving alcohol bottles to each male person so that they will be on their side.

For fair elections, the election commissioner has to have electoral rolls in the country and needs other members who can regularly verify and update the electoral rolls. At the time of elections, the duty of the volunteer is to look after the elections so that they will be performed fairly and give people knowledge about the elections so that they come to know that it is so important to cast their vote to form the government. It is their right or duty to choose the government at the same time. 

To conclude, I want to say that elections are the strong pillars of the country. It keeps the democratic country to be developed and helps in keeping its true essence. It gives the right to people of the democratic country to choose their government according to their choice. Thus, there is a requirement of proper awareness to be spread among the people so that they don't miss casting their precious vote because one vote can make or break the future of the country.

Speech For Election in School - Short

Very good morning to my worthy and respected principal and all the teachers as well as students present here. I, ( write your name here ) from ( mention your class ) is here to deliver a speech for the election.

Elections are one of the most important processes that are required to run a democratic country in which people have all the power to choose their representatives who will run the country or state or a region on their behalf. People with certain ages and voting rights are eligible to cast their votes in the elections. There are various methods of elections used. It keeps the long term development of the country. The most important factor of the election is that it can show the expression of the will of the people. That means which type of government they want to be in their country.

Undoubtedly, they help in choosing the representatives fairly but sometimes some candidates choose unfair means to win. For which proper check on the election process is required and on the other hand, there should be a proper system of Electoral Voting Machines ( EVM ) and proper check on that so that cheating can not be done.

Thus, elections will serve as the best tool if they are used fairly and no malpractices are allowed. Candidates should remember this if people have the right to choose them and allow them to run the government and if they don't do so, then they can be overthrown as well by the people. Therefore, honest and fair elections should be taken.

10 Lines For a Speech About Election in School

Following lines about elections you can use while writing your speech wherever required:

The election is a process in which people of the region participate and choose their representatives as per their choice.

There are various methods of elections such as first past the post system, proportional representation, hybrid system, etc.

Politics latest: PM 'appalled' by police protest row; Truss backs Trump and Sunak to win elections

Former prime minister Liz Truss has blamed her downfall on "deep resistance within the establishment" in an interview with Sky News. Meanwhile, Labour leader Keir Starmer has said the Tories have "lost any right" to call themselves patriotic.

We'll be back from 6am with all the latest.

People voting in local elections in England on 2 May will need to provide photo ID.

It is the second year the requirement has been in place - but in 2023,  14,000 people couldn't cast their ballot because they didn't take ID to the polling booth.

There are 22 different types of ID you can use - and if you don't have any of them, you can register for a Voter Authority Certificate.

Here's everything you need to know to avoid being caught out:

We have been reporting today that there's a lengthy list of MPs taking part in the London Marathon today - with one MP running for the 18th time ( see post at 11.27am ).

But none so far have taken the title for fastest-ever MP to run the race from Matthew Parris. 

In 1985, he ran the marathon in 2 hours, 32 minutes.

The Times columnist and former Conservative MP told Sky News he is "intensely proud, inordinately proud" at the achievement. 

"I would almost think it is the thing of which I am most proud in my entire political career," he said.

"I had trained so intensely. 

"Up hill, down dale - I would run into the House of Commons for a vote and run back after the vote."

He said he even got stopped by the police once running back from a vote. 

"It was a better result than I could have expected, so I was very proud," he said.

A power-sharing agreement between the SNP and the Greens at Holyrood is under threat after the Scottish government ditched a key climate change target.

The Scottish Green Party has said a vote on the deal, to be held at a forthcoming extraordinary general meeting (EGM), would be binding.

The date of the assembly and the crunch ballot has yet to be announced.

There is unhappiness among Green Party members after the SNP announced the Scottish government was scrapping its commitment to cut emissions by 75% by 2030. 

The Rainbow Greens, the party's LGBT wing, has also criticised the announcement, which came on the same day that the prescription of puberty blockers for new patients under the age of 18, at the gender identity service in Glasgow, would be paused.

The decision followed a landmark review of gender services for under-18s in England and Wales.

Scottish Greens co-leader Patrick Harvie said he would be urging members to back the power-sharing agreement so the party could "put Green values into practice" in government.

Writing on X, he said "many" members had been calling for an EGM to discuss the future of the agreement.

But Mr Harvie said: "As part of the Scottish government, we're making a difference on a far bigger scale than ever before."

In case you missed Sunday Morning With Trevor Phillips, we have a recap of one of the interviews on the programme.

Richard Tice, the leader of Reform UK, claimed Conservative Prime Minister Rishi Sunak is "not a real Conservative".

He pointed to the high tax burden and even went as far as calling Mr Sunak a "socialist".

Read the full story below:

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak is "appalled" by an exchange at a pro-Palestinian protest in which the Met Police threatened to arrest an "openly Jewish" man, a government source has told Sky News.

Met Police chief Sir Mark Rowley is facing calls to resign after antisemitism campaigner Gideon Falter was threatened with arrest near the protest march in London ( see post at 08.36am ).

Mr Falter, the chief executive of the Campaign Against Antisemitism, said Jewish Londoners cannot have confidence in the Met under Sir Mark's leadership and accused the commissioner of "victim blaming".

Energy Secretary Claire Coutinho earlier told Sky News the incident was "completely wrong" and that "what happens next" with regard to Sir Mark was a "matter for the Labour London mayor" ( see post at 08.40am ).

Sky News understands that Sir Mark does still retain the confidence of London mayor Sadiq Khan (see post at 11.46am) .

By Adam Boulton , Sky News commentator 

Liz Truss has much more in common with Donald Trump than just the first three letters of his surname.

Despite presenting themselves as "outsiders", both enjoyed substantial political careers and reached the top of their profession as prime minister of the UK and president of the United States respectively.

In both cases, their periods in power ended in ways that outraged their opponents and many in their own Conservative and Republican parties. Economic chaos brought on by her rash policies forced Truss out of office after just 49 days in 10 Downing Street.

Trump lost the 2020 election, refused to accept his defeat and praised the mob who stormed the Capitol in an attempt to keep him in the White House.

Many thought they were finished for good. But like those who had laughed at their ambitions earlier in their careers, the nay-sayers were wrong again. Both have been reprieved and continue to be respected as forces in their parties.

Conservative MP Mark Menzies has been suspended from the parliamentary party in light of allegations he abused local Tory party funds to pay off "bad people".

Mark Menzies strongly disputes the claims which also include accusations he used campaign funds to pay his personal medical bills.

On the Conservatives' investigation into the claims, Defence Secretary Grant Shapps told Sky News this week action was being taken "swiftly".

He added: "I think it is important to stress that the MP in question here denies the allegations and so on the basis of fairness and proper justice, I think it's important to mention that."

On the Sky News Daily, Niall Paterson is joined by political correspondent Darren McCaffrey to analyse how Westminster will cope with another scandal.

Plus, the Scottish government has come under fire for rowing back on its climate commitments.

Niall speaks to science correspondent Thomas Moore about the consequences of the government missing eight out of 12 of its annual climate commitments.

The head of the Met Police is to meet Jewish community leadership groups amid a row over the force threatening to arrest an "openly Jewish" man.

Sir Mark Rowley will meet representatives from the Board of Deputies of British Jews, the Jewish Leadership Council and Community Security Trust (CST). 

Confirming the meeting, the Board of Deputies of British Jews said they would be discussing this "serious issue".

Sir Mark is facing calls to resign after antisemitism campaigner Gideon Falter was threatened with arrest near a pro-Palestinian march in London ( see post at 08.36am ).

Campaign Against Antisemitism have told Sky News they are not attending the meeting.

Sky News understands the meeting is expected to take place on Thursday.

The Sky News live poll tracker - collated and updated by our Data and Forensics team - aggregates various surveys to indicate how voters feel about the different political parties.

With the local election campaign well under way, Labour is still sitting comfortably on a roughly 21-point lead, averaging at 43.6% in the polls, with the Tories on 23.1%.

In third is Reform UK on 12.3%, followed by the Lib Dems on 9.2%.

The Green Party stands at 6.5%, and the SNP on 3.1%.

Indian elections are one of the most important political events in India. They are held every five years and let the people of India pick their representatives and government. The Election Commission of India is an impartial agency in charge of overseeing the whole election process. It is in charge of ensuring that elections are free and fair, as well as that all laws and regulations are obeyed.

Election Speech - 10 Lines, Short and Long Speech

1. Elections are an essential aspect of a democratic society because they allow citizens to express their political opinions by voting.

2. Every election has certain qualifying requirements for its residents.

3. Every democratic country follows the slogan- of the people, by the people and for the people.

4. Most democratic countries have new elections for national legislatures every few years.

5. In our parliamentary system, elections are used to choose Members of Parliament or MPs from local regions.

6. Elections are conducted in various ways in different nations.

7. Because various nations have varied methods of electing candidates, some people vote for an individual while others vote for a political party.

8. Any person above the age of 18 has the right to vote freely.

9. Elections foster a sense of equality among the citizens of a country.

10. Elections keep a country on the path to democracy and away from chaos.

Good morning everyone present here. An election gives citizens of a country a valuable opportunity to engage in politics and express their political views. Elections provide a helpful hand in keeping political power in check for political leaders. Elections also tend to strengthen the political community's stability and credibility. Elections aid in social and political unification. A vote tends to boost a voter's self-esteem and self-respect.

Elections are one of the most crucial procedures necessary to govern a democratic country in which people have complete control over who will rule the country, state, or territory on their behalf. People of specific ages and voting rights are eligible to vote in elections. Elections are conducted in a variety of ways. It ensures the country's long-term growth. The most essential aspect of the election is that it may demonstrate the manifestation of the people's will. This refers to the form of governance they desire in their nation.

They undoubtedly aid in the fair selection of legislators, but some candidates will use unethical ways to win. For which a thorough check on the election process is essential, as well as a proper system of Electoral Voting Machines (EVM) and adequate checks on that so that cheating is not possible.

Thus, elections will be the most effective weapon provided they are conducted properly and without bias. Candidates should remember that the people have the right to pick them and allow them to run the government and that if they do not, the people have the right to overthrow them as well. As a result, honest and fair elections must be held.

Elections in India are a process by which the citizens of India select their representatives at the national and state level. The elections are held every five years for the Lok Sabha (lower house of the Parliament of India) and every five years for the Legislative Assembly of each state. The process of election is governed by the Election Commission of India, which is an independent body responsible for conducting free and fair elections in the country.

The election process includes activities such as voter registration, nomination of candidates, campaign period. India is in the midst of an election season, and everyone is seizing the opportunity to vote for leaders who they believe will bring about beneficial changes in the country. I wanted to notify you all that elections will be held in our area the day after tomorrow.

I would like to make you aware of the significance of elections in India. Because some day we will all turn 18 and will be eligible to cast our vote and make a difference. Most of us believe that not voting will make no difference; many people also believe that all leaders are the same and that no change will occur regardless of which leader or party is in power. This is not correct; I believe that every major individual has the right to vote.

The Election Commission of India was created in 1950, shortly after India gained independence. It is led by the Chief Election Commissioner, who is nominated by India's President. The government appoints the other members of the panel. In 1952-1953, the first general elections were held to choose members of the Lok Sabha (lower house) and state legislatures.

Some individuals are barred from voting because they have been found guilty of electoral or other significant offences; however, this is a proud time for each of us because we are a part of India's largest Lok Sabha Election. Also, whichever party wins, we will be the reason for their success. Don't assume that one vote doesn't count; in fact, every vote counts and is vital in elections. However, the person's name must also be on the electoral records, and they must have a valid voter card. It is recommended that you verify your name on the voter list ahead of time to avoid any problems or concerns on Election Day.

You can still vote if you have applied for a voter card but have not yet gotten it. Check the website electoral search for your name on the voter list; if your name is on the list, you can vote by showing any other ID evidence such as Aadhar Card, Passport, etc. Friends, I'm not advocating or campaigning for any one party or candidate; rather, I truly want to emphasise the importance of voting. Unfortunately, no state has seen 100% turnout. The majority of people in India believe that no change will occur. Today, I'd like to make the case that change will only occur if we change our mindset and approach.
