Despite the different languages and cultures of the pupil participants, there are clear and similar themes running through the work produced. ‘Pupil voice’ was truly facilitated and there was a strong and passionate request by pupils for their parents and carers to talk with them more, have open conversations and ask questions on a daily basis about, 'how they are': simple ideas and suggestions in theory, but probably the hardest to achieve in practice.

The pupils presented their messages using a variety of formats and created a flip-card game, some posters and leaflets, a newsletter, an instructional video, an advert and a foldable flyer.
