We currently offer fully funded introductory workshops so young people can experience Vox Pop firsthand before committing to anything. You can choose from two flagship sessions:
Elite Debating Masterclass Delivered by one of our founders who were both president of the most prestigious debating society in the world. This workshop teaches students the mechanics of world-class debate. Participants learn how to decode a question, build an argument under time pressure, and rebut effectively. Ideal as an enrichment day activity, a PSHE drop-down session, or an extension programme for high-ability students.
Are You Smarter Than a Politician? (AYSTAP) An immersive civic simulation based on our AYSTAP workbook. Students step into the shoes of decision-makers and work through real scenarios including budget trade-offs, policy design, and political campaigning. Fast-paced, discussion-based, and deliberately provocative in the best possible way. Students leave with a much clearer sense of how political decisions actually get made, and why it matters that they are involved.
