Online debates

Resource Description

The debates are an online forum on the Commonwealth Class website at www.bbc.co.uk/commonwealthclass

The week before each debate, new resources and discussion points will be published online for schools to think about.

Each debate will be scheduled for a specific time – usually two hours – during which schools wishing to participate email their opinions and comments to the website.
The BBC will then publish the comments in a live text page, so that everyone else taking part can read them and respond.
