Emilie Marsh

What I aim to do if I become an MYP?

I want to be an MYP so that I can improve student voice within schools, young people’s awareness and understanding of What’s next after GCSE’s, STI’s, teenage pregnancy, and contraception.

Student voice

I’m lucky because my school already has a brilliant student voice system in place called ‘Student Council’, which I am a member of. The sad thing is not all schools have system where students can voice there opinions on what they want from the school. This is why you should vote for me, so that i can go to local schools and promote student voice and try make a difference in your schools so that young people are being heard!! 

What next after GCSEs

I also want to improve young peoples awareness and understanding of what options you actually have after your GCSEs. Many young people still believe that further education is for clever people and that there are no other ways to gain qualifications. i want to eliminate this stereotypical image of education and enlighten my fellow young people on what its actually out there for them!!

STIs, Teen Pregnancy, and contraception

I also want to improve young peoples awareness and understanding of basic sex education. This is vital information that all young people should know and know well. There are still many young people who think the pill can stop you getting pregnant or iv you take the pill you don't need a condom! This is wrong and i want to try improve young peoples knowledge on these areas so that they can be safe and sensible and know what to do and where to go if they need help!
