Big debates

Students at ESU Mace debating

Our debate teams have been making their voices heard, kicking off with a confident showing at the ESU Schools’ Mace, where Catherine, Khaysha, Maryam, and Noa (year 10), supported by team captain Mehr (year 11),  sharpened their arguments and delivered speeches with real clarity and style. Meanwhile, eight more debaters took on the regional Cambridge Schools qualifier, tackling topics from social media and feminism to worker protections in a fiercely competitive field. Both teams left with stronger techniques and fresh perspectives that enhanced their views.
