A group of 8 KEVI students in Year 11 and Year 12 represented the school at a European Youth Parliament Regional Event. Staff accompanying the students were immensely proud; the students were a real credit to themselves and, the school competing against eight other schools.
They prepared on a complex topic (farming, strikes and taxation) thoroughly with extremely short notice and, whilst, we did not get through to the next round, the judges had this to say:
In terms of more specific feedback we would really like to commend your team’s consistent enthusiasm from the very start, and their incredibly strong teamwork. We would also draw attention to their use of post-it notes and other forms of active communication during debates as a particular strength.
It is great to see students taking advantage of the many additional opportunities at KEVI and developing their Accomplished Student characteristics.
