From 28 to 30 January, some of our Year 9 and Year 10 students took part in a Model United Nations simulation held at the Lycée International de Londres – Winston Churchill (LIL). Over three days, they stepped into the shoes of diplomats, representing different countries and debating major international issues in a challenging and stimulating environment.
During this immersive experience, our students developed their skills in public speaking, argumentation, research and policy preparation, as well as teamwork. They had to defend their country’s position, negotiate compromises, and find solutions to global issues such as climate change, human rights, and international security.
The simulation also offered an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of international institutions, the complexities of diplomatic relations, and current global challenges. Our students demonstrated curiosity, creativity, and commitment, with some impressively articulating their arguments in English before their peers.
This three-day experience will remain a highlight of their educational journey, perfectly reflecting our students’ international outlook, civic engagement, and their ability to tackle intellectual and human challenges
