YOUNGSTERS from Birchensale Middle School recently welcomed a very special visitor to the school.

Redditch MP Rachel Maclean visited earlier this month and talked to pupils about her role as an MP.

She went on to engage them in a discussion about their understanding of what happens within the House of Commons.

Budding David Dimblebys and Jon Snows then got the chance to question the MP on topical subjects such as her stance on Brexit what bills she had been involved in recently.

A school spokesman said: "Pupils found the event very informative and enjoyed the interaction with their local MP."

Mrs Maclean said that it was a privilege to be at Birchensale and was looking forward to a return visit.
