Setting up a debating club

Starting a new debating club at your school can seem like a daunting task, but we are here to make this as easy as possible for you with a wide variety of resources and training opportunities. 

If you are a teacher or a pupil at a state school in Scotland, you may be eligible for our Speak up Scotland programme. This will give you the opportunity to have us run a series of free workshops at your school, aimed at helping your young debaters find their feet and learn the basics of the activity. For more information on this programme, and to find out whether your school is eligible, please follow the link above or contact us at events@youngspeakersscotland.org.uk.
