Ms Haybittle's Year 9 English class is currently studying debating. The boys have been working in teams to prepare speeches on a variety of moots. Debating involves developing skills such as listening, researching, thinking on your feet and fluent speaking, that the students will find useful in many other learning areas, as well as in later life. It has been an enjoyable activity for the boys of 9BHE. We congratulate the winning teams and look forward to challenging the other Year 9 classes to an inter-class debate later this term.
The moot for the day was that "students should be paid to go to school" which attracted a good deal of enthusiasm from the participants. Surprisingly, however, the team arguing against the moot were the winners!
