On Thursday 19h April, the Aston Manor Debating Society sent 2 teams to Birmingham University for the 2012 Birmingham Regional Deutsche Bank DebateMate Cup. Both teams did very well to win their first debates on the motion “This House believes the UK should intervene militarily in Syria.” The following 2 debates were: “This House would ban all toys and games relating to war,” and “This House would allocate votes to citizens based on their level of education.” Both teams did incredibly well and came up against some tough opposition, leading to some very high quality debates. Aston Manor ‘A’ went on to win all their debates and came 4th overall out of 26 teams from 13 schools, a fantastic result! All the students who took part were brilliant and they did Aston Manor proud.
This term there will be a House Debating competition and the Debating Society will continue to run on Monday afternoons in E2 with Mr O’Donoghue. If you want to take part in the House debates, come to see Mr O’Donoghue to learn how you can get prepared!
