The Portadown College Debating Society meets every two weeks to debate the key issues of the day. With each year group taking responsibility for a debate, students have debated a range of controversial topics from vaccinations to the relevance of the monarchy. Special events feature seasonal debates and the hotly contested inter-house debate at the end of the school year.
New members are always welcome to the debating table or to join the audience for what continues to be a popular and well attended extra-curricular activity at Portadown College.
