![]() | Moving from Yorkshire to Birmingham in 2008, Anna is currently doing her A-Levels at Kings Norton Girls’ School - studying History, Psychology, Music and English Language & Literature. Anna has a keen interest in music, and plays the piano, the trombone and the saxophone. She is a member of the Midlands Youth Jazz Orchestra, and studies saxophone on the Jazz Course at Birmingham Junior Conservatoire. On completion of her A-Levels, Anna hopes to go on to study Law and subsequently train as a barrister. Anna joined the schools’ debating society at the start of year 12, taking part in various workshops and Oxbridge competitions along the way. She then joined the “Debating Matters” team in 2009 for the Regional Final stage of the competition. Kings Norton finished as Runners Up in last year’s Central Regional Final, and Anna hopes for greater success in this year’s competition. |

Debating Matters Competition showcase debate: "Copyright Benefits the Arts"
"It alerts me to new areas of debate, and gives thought-provoking new angles on topics I thought I already knew well. Altogether it's a wonderful intellectual tonic, which cheers up the dog days of November."
