“I really enjoyed spending a lesson practising debating skills; English lessons can feel quite based on written work, so having a chance to express ideas verbally was really exciting. I was a bit nervous going but found the experience overall exciting.” - Holly C, Y10 pic.twitter.com/KWd5uLkokI— Waldegrave School (@WaldegraveSch) February 13, 2025
