Year 12 enjoyed a perfectly timed Politics trip to London on the day after the Makerfield by-election, where they witnessed a flurry of ministerial aides and journalists outside Downing Street.

Some brave students even had a go at asking them for their opinions, receiving plenty of "no comment" responses in return. 

A definite highlight was exploring the Supreme Court and even getting to sit in the justices' seats. Mr Smith delivered an unforgettable walking tour of London, allowing everyone to soak up plenty of history as well as the sunshine. A fantastic day all round.
