Pupil Comments

"Overall, I think my experience in the BBC Young Reporter project has been good, as we have learnt a lot about climate change and new facts. I also learnt how we can help reduce climate change as individuals. I also interviewed Mr Brayshaw  and what he thought about it."

As we reported on climate change, during this project we asked questions to Mr Brayshaw (our Geography teacher).  As in our planning we faced many challenges, e.g. fake news and trusted sources. We then asked open question rather than closed question. Our overall experience was fantastic. Leaning about new and surprising facts."

"I have enjoyed BBC Young Reporter because I was able to use my knowledge to create a script about why there should be more afterschool clubs. I have learnt about reporting. We also used open questions and no closed questions. Open questions are when there are no yes and no answers, but you have to go into detail. I have also learnt about how to do research and journalism . We chose this script so that the school pupils know what after school club SJW offers.

Overall, I loved doing this because it was really fun and interesting and I got to work with Liyah."

"In year 7, we have been doing the BBC Young Reporter project in which we learnet how to create a script. I enjoyed this because it required a vast number of talents that have been developed, such as teamwork, journalism and writing skills. Whilst journalism I have learnt to not use closed questions and only open questions. Making it interesting, Me and Meera wrote our script about why there should be more afterschool clubs, I have learnt how to research and communicate properly and listen properly."

Overall, I really enjoyed this project."
