Smart School Councils

Our core programme supports 360 member schools with a whole-school approach to democracy.

Our aim is to help every child lead change through direct democracy in their schools. Last year, 40,000 students per week engaged in debate as a part of our class debate tool: raising democracy participation from 7% to 100% in just one term.

The Big Debate Club

A weekly online debate that supports young people to lead a discussion with their family or class

We designed and built this debate tool during the first month of the pandemic to support the wellbeing of young people. The program is funded by UBS.
