Recently Year 12 students attended the European Youth Parliament Regional Forum at Sheffield’s Circle Conference Centre, where they had the opportunity to debate issues of European politics with a variety of schools throughout Yorkshire. The team of 7 Year 12 students managed to win on the day despite all the pre-debate nerves and go on to complete in the national debate competition!
School Direct trainee Raven Tolson worked with the team throughout and commented after the victory:
“It was clear from the tireless effort of all the students that they were capable of winning the competition; the real victory was their active contribution in the current issues of the world they will one day inherit.”
