The Broxburn Academy students won the Donald Dewar Memorial Debate tournament
Two pupils from Broxburn Academy have been crowned the winners of 2024’s Donald Dewar Memorial Debate tournament.
The four teams debated the motion: This house believes that time travel should be banned, even if it is technologically feasible. Law Society of Scotland President, Susan Murray, and the Society’s Executive Director of Education, Training, and Qualifications, Liz Campbell, were among those in attendance at the final, and congratulated the winners and all 64 teams who took part across all stages of the tournament.
“I’d like to extend my thanks to our chair, Daniel Howie, and our fantastic judges David Dickson, Rhys Bradley, Paul Cruikshank, Erin Grieve and Nathan Adam as well as all the schools, teachers, parents and the 128 pupils who have given so much time and energy to the tournament. It’s been inspiring to see the talent on display and we look forward to seeing some of these young people build on their skills and join the solicitor profession in the future.
