After a powerful debut in 2025, TEDx JPC is back for its second year, offering students an extraordinary platform to speak boldly, share ideas, and inspire change. This year, the event opens its stage to the wider MACS community, celebrating voices that are shaping tomorrow.
Twelve student presenters will lead the way, tackling big questions and sparking curiosity with stories that matter.
TEDx was an incredible opportunity to share our passion for empathy and human connection. It was nerve-wracking but exhilarating, and we learned the power of vulnerability in creating real connections. TEDx boosted our confidence, proving that our voices matter and our ideas can make an impact.
Bullying based on intelligence is a growing issue in schools. Despite my nerves, I learned that people will listen if you take the chance to speak up. My advice to future TEDx speakers: don’t be afraid, be confident, and HAVE FUN.
Why take the stage?
