On Tuesday, 20 January, Warwick Junior School’s Debating Club showed their impressive skills in a live debate held in front of their Year 6 peers. The debate topic was 'This house believes that politics should be on the Upper Key Stage 2 curriculum'.

Both teams spoke with confidence and clarity, presenting well-researched arguments and responding thoughtfully to opposing viewpoints. The boys were articulate, persuasive and demonstrated excellent teamwork throughout. The audience also played an important role, asking insightful questions that pushed the debaters to think on their feet.

At the end of the debate, a vote was held with the following results: 64% against the motion, 35% in favour and 1% of votes spoiled. Regardless of the outcome, the event was a great success, with everyone taking something valuable from the experience. It was a fantastic example of critical thinking, public speaking and respectful discussion in action. Well done boys!
