On Monday 25th March, we welcomed 45 pupils from across Birmingham to our Outreach Workshop, led by RE Today. The event encouraged pupils to consider the meaning of respect, as well as ideas about overcoming prejudice and discrimination. Throughout the day, pupils were able to discuss their different ideas and recognise their ability to disagree but remain respectful towards each other. The day culminated in an opportunity to be creative and design a poster to express their ideas about respect. Thank you to all the student volunteers who helped to make the day such a success: Salma, Lucy, Lucy, Namrata, Hinna, Dhaksha, Inderpreet and Sparsha.

The great Easter Debate: a sweet, chaotic showdown
If you were expecting a serious, well-structured debate at this year’s Easter debate, you were in for a surprise. What unfolded was less of a formal argument and more of a theatrical masterpiece – complete with flying chocolate, wild accusations and a speaker who somehow turned it into a human rights campaign for sugar.
