Today three Doncaster schools took part in  our first DB8 day! Many thanks to our professional university debate mentors (Dee, Richard and Susan) for the fantastic training they gave to their groups. 36 Year 8 and 9 students from Sir Thomas Wharton, Balby Carr College and Rossington All Saints worked in mixed groups to research a chosen topic, structure arguments for and against and gain communication skills in presenting to an audience. This afternoon, all the students took part in televised debates – it got quite heated at times! Watch this space for an edited highlights video over the next few weeks.

We would love to hear from other schools or groups interested in promoting or taking part in debate and discussion in Doncaster.
