A fresh cohort of A-level English students from around the country descended on Stratford-upon-Avon on 6 and 7 February to participate in the third Great Shakespeare Debate, a two day competition run in partnership with the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust.
The final was judged by Professor Kate McLuskie, Director of the Shakespeare Institute and two ESU mentors and experience debate veterans. In a closely fought debate, on This House believes that to appreciate Shakespeare you must understand the context in which it was written, both North London Collegiate School and King Edward VI Fiveways School displayed the skills that had been acquired over the course of the tournament. Professor McLuskie finally declared Emily Slater, Rachael Tucker and Kevin Sexton from King Edward VI Fiveways to be the winners.
