Student council

A student council (also known as a student union, associated student body or student parliament) is an administrative organization of students in different educational institutes ranging from elementary schools to universities and research organizations around the world.^[1]^[2] These councils exist in most public and private K-12 school systems in different countries.^[3]^[4]^[5] Many universities, both private and public, have a student council as an apex body of all their students' organisations.^[6]^[7] Student councils often serve to engage students in learning about democracy and leadership, as originally espoused by John Dewey in Democracy and Education (1917).
