Global Classrooms 2016-2017

The students in 3rd ESO from IES Pintor Antonio López have participated for the first time in Global Classrooms, a form of Model United Nations used as a teaching tool throughout the world.

Students were prepared to develop skills such as public speaking, critical thinking, debating, researching, writing, while raising their awareness of the larger problems in the world around them. 

After three months of intense preparation, a team of ten students was finally selected as representatives of our school to compete against other schools in Madrid. 

Our representatives, assisted by their teachers, did a fantastic job. Unfortunately, they were not able to make it to the final round. However, they all agreed that it has been a fantastic experience from which they have learnt a lot. So the effort has paid off anyway. Congratulations!!
