PUBLIC SPEAKING
COMPETITION 2010/2011
Every year BPW UK holds a national public speaking competition designed to help young people from across the country to build their confidence and develop the vital life skill of speaking in front of an audience. It is also an ideal opportunity to prepare for entry into the world beyond school, where competition is fierce. Since 2005 the National Final has been sponsored in partnership with the English Speaking Board.
Once again Moreton Hall School in Oswestry hosted the national final on 9 April 2011 where everyone present was treated to an extremely high standard of presentations covering a wide range of topics, researched in great depth and delivered with conviction.
Many thanks go to everyone who took part, and to those who provided support and encouragement both to the teams and the competition organisers. A special thank you is due to Annette Jones for coordinating everything.
