A fantastic evening debating some of the greatest thinkers of all time. Congratulations to Confucius on winning the inaugural “World Cup of Intellectual Powerhouses”. Rayan M used compelling arguments based around the importance and timelessness of Confucius’ intellectual ideas.

The draw for the inaugural “World Cup of Intellectual Powerhouses” happening this evening. We’ll be discussing and debating some of the greatest thinkers of all time, but there can only be one winner! Inspired by @TheRestHistory @dcsandbrook @holland_tom - any early predictions?

We were delighted to welcome Dr Strange and Dr Strong from @felstedhistory this week who spoke to us about further study at university, from undergraduate right up to their experience of completing a PhD. Very insightful and we had fun exploring their theses! #felstedinspires

Our thanks to Mrs Trocmé-Latter for giving a wonderfully engaging talk last night on coins, why they matter, and what they can reveal to us about history. We were also able to handle coins from her collection, some of which are 2000 years old! #FelstedInspires @tellaboutcoins

This afternoon 4 of our members had the privilege of presenting a report to the Senior Leadership Team on the use of ChatGPT in education. We have set up a working group in recent weeks investigating its potential use and benefits. Ambrose, Elle, Alex and Ellie - excellent work!

[The Andrew Society @AndrewSociety]

Our members very much enjoyed chatting to governors and deputy heads about ChatGPT. We have set up a working group investigating the potential use of ChatGPT in education and look forward to presenting our findings to heads of school at a later date. #FelstedInspires

A pleasure to welcome our visitors for Lenten Address week this evening, for a session filled with discussions on the origin and meaning of life, the existence of a creator, morality without God, and more. Plenty of sore brains after that one! @opendoor4u #FelstedInspires

Wonderful to welcome Mrs Howorth last night to talk us through the excellent opportunities on offer through @FelstedLibrary, including the new “Well Read with Felsted” initiative. Perfect to go alongside our session on developing academic curiosity! #felstedinspires
