"Very insightful discussion. It may have deviated from
the main point, but still was thought provoking. It may have been more helpful if the youths had more of a voice."

Tiemo Talk of The Town - Education Debate 29.09.06
"I thought the night was good. Panel members were very good and informative. It was great that you were able to get a
good mix, including racial mix - very important. The panel and audience there made it a successful event.
I like the way the event included a mix of information - magistrates, school governors and the display of information,
plus a complimentary New Nation."
Bev Grant, DFES

"Really good debate. I thoroughly enjoyed the talk. The bootcamp man [Coach Lyken] was brilliant and really lifted the
night. It was good to hear the different perspectives of the panellists."

"Really brilliant. A very stimulating, good mix of panellists with a diverse range of views. A really interesting
debate."
Michelle Fanus
------------------------------------------------------------------
"The event started off with a serious debate on why women in general were pursuing higher education in greater numbers
than men and developed onto a very interesting debate on how this could potentially affect relationships. The evening
featured a diverse range of panelists who were obviously knowledgeable in their fields. All of the panelists gave their frank
and open views on the repercussions of men not catching up with women in education.
We as the audience also had many opportunities to give our viewpoint and contribute to the debate. Overall I would say
that this was an excellent evening and the panelists and speakers provide inspiration for us within the Black community to
take more of an interest in education and to encourage others to do the same."
