Students Debate at Model United Nations


Many of the Sixth Form are currently on the outskirts of the Hague in the Netherlands attending a Model United Nations Conference.

The event gave students the chance to lobbying and debate as well as submit and defend resolutions.

Roy Peachey, Head of Sixth Form, said: "The great thing about attending this Model United Nations Conference in the Netherlands is the opportunities it provides for international collaboration.

"For example, we have one of our students, originally from Brunei representing France and a Dutch student representing Germany.

"While we've been here we have also heard from Dan King from the US Embassy in Amsterdam who spoke to the Crisis Committee and the Security Council about crisis management, with particular reference to Haiti and last year's Turkish plane crash in the Netherlands."
