We believe that training the students to be good debaters has many benefits. Reasoning, research and even public speaking skills are just some of the positives behind learning how to be a great debater.
Debating helps to develop essential critical thinking skills – the ability to make reasoned and well thought out arguments in addition to questioning the evidence behind a particular stance or conclusion.
Debating can help the students become even better at explaining a whole variety of topics from explaining complex mathematical equations to the plotline of their favourite book.
It aids them in their ability to think on their feet and respond to questions and comments.In fact, the ability to think on their feet could stand them in good stead in any situation which life throws at them, when time is of the essence and a decision needs to be made fast.
The students take part in in-school debate competitions and in inter-school competitions as well. Many have won prizes at the inter-school level.
