On Monday, Year 10 students competed in the final of the Newcastle Schools Debating Competition. The students were an absolute credit to JPA, and due to their hard work and determination, they came in second place following a fierce debate with students from Callerton Academy. We are so proud of the students involved and it has been a pleasure to watch their public speaking skills develop over the past few months. If your child is interested in debating, look out for further information regarding a KS4 debating club commencing in the Autumn term.
