We are delighted to share that our Year 10 students recently took part in the second round of the Jack Petchey Speak Out Challenge.

After completing the initial workshop with expert trainers from Speakers Trust, where they built confidence, developed their public-speaking skills and crafted powerful personal speeches, our students returned to the stage for the Assembly Final. Here, they delivered their speeches in front of their year group, each hoping to secure a place in the Regional Final.

The passion, bravery and authenticity shown by every participant were outstanding. A huge congratulations to Victorio, Ralphy, Annabelle and Milad, who impressed their peers and staff with compelling speeches and have moved one step closer to the next stage.

We are incredibly proud of how our students stepped up, spoke out, and supported one another throughout the process.

We are also thrilled to share that All Saints Catholic College will proudly serve as the host school for the RBKC Regional Final on 15 January 2026, and we look forward to welcoming students from across the borough for this exciting next stage of the challenge.
