It was a pleasure to visit both Guilsborough Academy and The Parker E-ACT Academy and spend time speaking with students about local issues and current affairs.
I always value the opportunity to visit schools across the constituency and hear directly from young people about the topics that matter most to them. The questions were thoughtful, engaged and covered a wide range of issues, reflecting a real interest in what is happening both locally and nationally.
Visits like these are a great chance to encourage discussion, answer questions, and support young people in engaging with politics, public life and the world around them.
Thank you to both schools for the warm welcome and to all the students who took part so enthusiastically.
If you would like me to visit your school or college, please do feel free to get in touch by email.
Schools can also book a free educational visit to Parliament, including tours and workshops for students. The next booking date for the Autumn term is 13 May.
