The Year 12 and 13 Politics students recently went on a tour round the Palace of Westminster to aid their understanding of Britain’s political process.
We started the day by visiting the British Museum, then went for a walk round the sights of London. We took in China town, Trafalgar Sqaure, the treasury, Horse Guards, the National police Memorial, the War office and the Supreme Court. We then headed to the Palaces of Westminster. After an engaging tour of the Commons and Lords we then undertook a workshop on manifestos.
Finally, we were privileged to meet our local MP, Alex Norris who gave an outstanding talk on local politics to our students.
Mr Howell would like to thank all the pupils for their enthusiasm during the day.
