Year 13 Spanish Students Triumph in Debate at Clifton College

Our Year 13 Spanish students had an enriching and rewarding experience this week at Clifton College, where they participated in the Spanish Modern Foreign Language debate. Competing against other students, they tackled the thought-provoking topic of the role of women in Hispanic society.

The debate saw many schools, both public and private, from across the region come together in a bid to take the number one spot. 

Through teamwork, research and knowledge, the students successfully persuaded the judges, ultimately winning the debate. This achievement not only showcased their linguistic skills but also highlighted their ability to engage critically with cultural and social issues.

Beyond the competition, the event provided a valuable opportunity for students to practice their Spanish in an immersive setting, engaging with both peers and native speakers. It was a memorable experience that strengthened their confidence and fluency, reinforcing the importance of language learning beyond the classroom.
