Model United Nations Introduction
Royal Russell School has been active in organising and participating in Model United Nations meetings for 30 years. A Model United Nations meeting is more about developing communication skills than it is about the United Nations as an organisation. Although the UN forms the basic framework, MUN gives students the opportunity to talk to, listen to and sometimes persuade people from other schools to accept their views. Students take part in debating and public speaking and develop leadership skills.


Benenden MUN - December 2011
Twenty-two Royal Russell students attended the 4^th annual Benenden MUN this December. Competing against mainly Sixth Form delegates from top independent schools our students had another excellent conference with every student speaking at least twice in their committees. Every committee had three awards – two highly commended and one outstanding delegate. Michelle (Year 10) representing Kenya and Kaitlin (Year 12) representing USA both won highly commended delegate awards in their committees and Sam representing North Korea (Year 10) and Barty representing Fatah (Year 8) won the prestigious outstanding delegate awards.
