Senior Debating

Entry form

Closing Date: 08/Feb/2012

Final: 12/May/2012

Purpose: Macra members in education, at work or during their social lives, have to engage with those around them and many become leaders in various capacities. Much of the time it is important to be able to articulate and argue your point of view. Having the skills to do this effectively prepares you better, particularly for your working life. Our Senior Debating competition, with teams of three, develops these skills, including the ability to develop and present an argument, critically appraise an opposing view and being able to think clearly and speak persuasively.
