All our meetings are class based allowing every child to be involved in decisions. The Smart School Council Community is pupil led. The children take ownership, with the guidance of a staff member, of goals to work towards and how we will achieve this. Last year we held a bake sale to raise money for new playground equipment. ![](https://www.stmatthewspreston.co.uk/images/council_pic.jpg) ### Academy Life - [News](https://www.stmatthewspreston.co.uk/news) - [Gallery](https://www.stmatthewspreston.co.uk/about-us/gallery) - [Calendar](https://www.stmatthewspreston.co.uk/calendar) - [School Council](https://www.stmatthewspreston.co.uk/children/school-council) - [Sustainability](https://www.stmatthewspreston.co.uk/sustainability) - [![Artsmark Award](https://files.schudio.com/st-matthew-s-cofe-primary/images/partners/Am_Schl_Gld_RGB.jpg)](https://st-matthewscofe.lancs.sch.uk/about-us/our-awards) - [![EAL Quality Mark](https://files.schudio.com/st-matthew-s-cofe-primary/images/partners/EAL_Silver.jpg)](https://st-matthewscofe.lancs.sch.uk/about-us/our-awards) - [![Halo Code](https://files.schudio.com/st-matthew-s-cofe-primary/images/partners/halo_code.jpg)](https://st-matthewscofe.lancs.sch.uk/about-us/our-awards) ##### Location New Hall Lane Preston Lancashire PR1 5XB ##### Contact Us 01772 794482 ##### Stay Connected - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61587761925215) - [X](https://x.com/mackley_ma56490) © Copyright 2018–2026 St Matthew's Church of England Primary Academy and Nursery School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.stmatthewspreston.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
