Students from The Royal Masonic School for Girls (RMS) in Rickmansworth won seven awards at the Cambridge Model United Nations (UN).
In the event, each student represented a different country in debates on global issues.
RMS students worked with pupils from across the world during the event, including Belize, the USA, and Indonesia.
Almost all of the 26 RMS students involved were first-time delegates. Their awards included best delegate, best first-time delegate, and an honourable mention.
The event helped students form friendships, understand international diplomacy, and hone their public speaking skills.
Ms Hardy, deputy head of RMS, said: “We are immensely proud of all of our pupils for putting themselves out of their comfort zones, stepping into the shoes of a country that is not their own, and doing so with such compassion and grace.”
Model UN engages hundreds of thousands of students each year. The UN claims many of society’s leaders today participated in Model UN as students.
