At the International Oratory Festival we might just find the next great public speaker of our century ... But we're not wanting you to copy 'The Greats': we want you to be you! Find out more at oratoryfestival.com.
This is probably the category your debaters would want to enter…
Replying to @oratoryfestival
> 'Public speaking: Presenting an argument' is a great category because you can speak either for😀or against 😠 the issue, or take a position in between🤔. Our options include topical issues about pets 🐕, sports ⚽️ and technology📱oratoryfestival.com/events/c… >

And don’t forget to work the debate stimulus sheets into your planning!

I hope all our colleagues at PiXL schools have found these resources: 160 stimulus sheets for topics across 28 subjects. A great way to support high quality oracy in the classroom.
Have you seen our Debating Mats which have been produced in collaboration with @noisyclassroom? They're available for subjects across the curriculum, for KS3, 4 and 5, covering a wide variety of topics. Great for developing oracy. Watch tonight's #60secondswithPiXL for more info:
