"It is really important to offer young people a forum to debate the issues they care about - and the rest of us need to listen. Schools Questions and Answers provides just this opportunity."

Get Involved
Getting involved in Schools Questions and Answers is easy. The project uses the format of BBC ONE's Question Time and BBC Radio 4's Any Questions? as the basis for learning key citizenship life skills and political literacy.
Each year the six winning schools get the opportunity to host a BBC programme from their school - either a Radio 4 broadcast of Any Questions? or a BBC Schools Q&A Webcast. Applications are now open for 2011/2012.
Free teaching resources are available all year round to download and we run free Teacher Training days across the UK in Sept/Oct.
