The School's Economics department took part in an annual essay competition run by Schroders Bank, against other Haberdashers' Schools. The title this year was:

“Governments are rapidly increasing their deficits and debt to support the economy. Running a government deficit is i) bad for the economy and ii) will require taxes to go up in the future.”    

The Economics department were very impressed by the essays submitted. This is clearly topic that is not going away any time soon!

Habs is delighted to announce the success of the following students:

• Jamar (U6H2): 2nd place across all schools
• Aly (U6C2): runner up across all schools
• Jai (U6M2): commended for his essay

The School would like to congratulate all the students who entered the Schroders Essay Competition as the quality of writing was excellent.
