Empowering Our Scholars: Third Term Focus on Debate Practice

As we embark on the third term of the academic year, we are excited to share our plans to further empower our scholars and enhance their skills through focused debate practice.

Empowering Through Debate:

This term, our primary focus will be on debate practice. Debate is not only an essential skill for academic success but also a powerful tool for building confidence, sharpening critical thinking, and honing persuasive communication abilities. By immersing our scholars in debate practice, we aim to equip them with the necessary skills to excel in presentations, strategy development, and content creation.

Benefits of Debate Practice:

  • Enhances critical thinking skills
  • Builds confidence in public speaking
  • Improves research and analytical abilities
  • Fosters teamwork and collaboration
  • Encourages respectful discourse and empathy

Preparation for Global Round:

Debate practice will play a crucial role in preparing our scholars for the upcoming global round. By providing them with ample opportunities to engage in structured debates, we aim to enhance their ability to express themselves effectively and convincingly on the global stage. With increased exposure to debate practice, our scholars will be better equipped to navigate the challenges and opportunities presented during the global round.

How You Can Support:

We encourage parents and guardians to support our scholars in their debate practice endeavours. Encourage them to actively participate in debate sessions, engage in discussions at home, and seek opportunities for public speaking and presentation practice. Your support and encouragement play a vital role in nurturing the confidence and skills of our scholars.

Stay Updated:

Throughout the term, we will keep you updated on the progress of our scholars in debate practice and their preparations for the global rounds. Look out for newsletters, announcements, and updates on our school's communication channels.

At Braeburn, we are committed to providing our scholars with holistic education that prepares them for success in the ever-changing world. By focusing on debate practice this term, we aim to empower our scholars with the skills and confidence they need to excel both academically and personally.

Thank you for your continued support and partnership in nurturing the growth and development of our scholars.
