The Sixth Form Debating/Mock United Nations club offers both in school and external events which enable students to hone their skills of argument. No matter what your views are on a topic, you can select a country to represent that either follows your opinion or, more interestingly, opposes it!

The Debating club meets regularly in school, with students writing their own resolutions to be debated, amended and voted on. Additionally, we compete in live and virtual events both locally and internationally. Participating in both the Berlin MUN (BERMUN) and Lyon MUN (ILYMUN) sees Wallingford students pit their skills against students from across the world on topics such as world peace, drug smuggling, fighting extremism and fake news. Whilst the European Youth Parliament, regional competition, encourages team work and joint research in order to outwit other schools over 6 rounds of debating.
