STUDENTS at Tenbury High School are having their own election.

There have been extensive discussions of the issues facing the electorate at the general election next month.

A number of students have been taking on the roll of candidates to express some of the different questions that voters will have to think about before going to the polls on May 7.

In particular the students have been considering the topics that are particularly important to young people including education, job prospects, and tuition fees.

When all the debates have been concluded the pupils at the Tenbury High School Ormiston Academy will cast their votes.
