We were delighted to welcome Asher Jacobsberg from the European Parliament Ambassador Schools Programme to LSA High School.

Asher worked with our Year 10 Geography students as they prepared for a debate on the European Union’s target of achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. Students explored a range of viewpoints from the perspective of the political groups in the European Parliament, developed their debating skills, and considered the challenges and opportunities involved in tackling climate change on a global scale.

They presented bravely and eloquently presented their arguments in front of the rest of the Year 10 geography students.

It was a fantastic opportunity for students to engage with a real-world issue, think critically about environmental policy, and gain a greater understanding of how important decisions are made at an international level.
