Thank you so much to Mr Thompson, who recently invited me along to Wolsingham school to meet and chat with the classics and politics club. I was delighted to introduce myself and answer their probing and carefully crafted questions. They really know their stuff! Clearly, they are all really engaged in politics, both in the North East as well as with national political issues.
It’s always interesting to hear the views of the younger generation, and hear what the issues that matter to them are. It’s even better when they’re clearly engaged and taught so well, so well done Mr Thompson!
Wolsingham School, right on the doorstep of the beautiful dales is a great place and the young people also benefit from having a group of such committed teachers. The school and its staff really is a credit to North West Durham and i look forward to my next visit.
