Never mind what’s been happening in Westminster, something much more crucial has been going on here as the whole school spent last week finding out more about the different parties, taking part in debates, and casting their own votes in the XP – East General Election (please do have a read of the blog post; it’s ace!)
I have to say, it was one of the best weeks we’ve ever had in Crew with lots of intelligent and well considered discussions and … erm … “lively debates” (arguments?!) about politics and democracy in our country. We really do need to keep young people engaged in these types of conversations. Now more than ever.
A MASSIVE appreciation to Miss Haughey and her A-Level Politics students for organising and facilitating the XPE General Election.
