Abstract This case study seeks to analyse the role of voice of students in the development of their behaviour. It also looks at various issues that have been raised on the levels of students’ participation in academic issues and the views held on the issue of students’ consultations and participation in the implementation of change in educational institutions. The aim of this case study is to show how ideas put forward by Foucault have helped shape behaviour of students in educational institutions in relation to their participation in educational matters. Introduction In the process of promotion of self-learning by students, the inclusion of their input and voices is of immense importance since it has the ability to empower them and to give them new experiences in learning. The level of student consultation and participation has been on the increase in almost all levels of education in the United Kingdom. More and more students have a say on the school administration on various matters that affect their academic life. This has witnessed behavioral change in institutions of learning. Although this has been the case, very few seem to agree on the meaning of this new desire to give students an opportunity to air their opinions on various matters in the academic circle. Numerous works done in this field by many contributors either seek to champion this cause or provide guidelines for effective students’ participation and consultation. Foucault Theory Foucault, in his theory explains power as a confrontation that involves two adversaries. He sees power as linking this adversary’s together rather the question on government. In his theory, government not only includes political structures but also the way groups or individuals’ conduct could be directed. Therefore, governmentality involves the effort to restructure human faculty or systems in order to function in a given manner. Due to this, the process of government would not be realized through struggle or linking the parties together, but in a mode of action that falls in between. According to Foucault, power can only be exercised when subjects are free. Therefore to him slavery cannot be an exercise of power. Foucault theory presents a model that explains how oppression can be fought. The theory can be used to give an explanation of how institutions of education can employ concepts of the theory to shape behavior of students especially in regard to their participation in educational matters. Students’ Participation According to Potter (2011), students can be grouped into four different categories that constitute their voice in adult education. The conceptual framework for students’ participation proposed by Potter proposes a level of students’ agency as one that is increasing. In the first view in this framework, the students are assumed to be sources of data and their assessment is based on the normative targets. In the second approach, students are assumed to be active in response to various questions where teachers are assumed to be able to listen to them with the view of responding to their analysis whenever they have the right and the freedom to raise their voices on various issues. The third approach by Potter takes students as partners in research with an expanded role of education especially in the decision making process where teachers are also included. In the fourth
