We would like an ambassador to come into the school, to initiate an informal debate around a current STEM related issue, to a group of Year 9 pupils. We would welcome debates around the following topics:

- Clinical trials
- Designer babies
- Heart disease/obesity
- Dieting

However, if you have alternative topics for debate, please do get in touch as we will still be interested.

The debate will be held away from the classroom in relaxed surroundings and no audio-visual equipment will be allowed. The Ambassador will introduce and lead on the topic and by posing questions to the group, provoke a healthy debate.

Please contact us at ambassadors@mosi.org.uk or click the RESPOND button below if you would like to be involved.
