A parent's guide to debating camps
Summer camps offering debating range from programmes built entirely around it to broader camps where it is one activity among many. Both are worth considering, and the difference is usually visible in the timetable rather than the description, so it is worth asking for one before you book.
The questions that matter are much the same wherever debating is taught: how many hours a day, how many children per instructor, and what a child leaves with at the end of the week. A camp that answers all three plainly is usually a camp that has thought about them.
Every camp below has been reviewed by our editorial team before going live. Use the filters to narrow by dates, budget, length and whether you want residential or day.

Debating Camps: your questions answered
Does my child need experience to join a debating camp?
Most camps group by ability after a short assessment on the first day and take complete beginners. Camps that expect prior experience say so clearly, and are usually described as performance, advanced or intensive.
How much does a debating camp cost?
Prices vary widely by country, length and whether the camp is residential or day. Use the budget filter above to see camps within your range. Prices are always shown in the camp's own currency.
Are these camps residential or day?
Both are listed. Residential camps include accommodation, meals and evening activities, and suit families travelling from further afield. Day camps run to school hours and are considerably cheaper. Filter by either above.
