Justin Welcomes Swindon Academy Students To Westminster

North Swindon MP Justin Tomlinson has welcomed A-Level students from Swindon Academy to Parliament to discuss his role as their local MP and their ideas for Swindon.

The students, studying a range of subjects including English Literature, History and Drama, enjoyed a tour of Parliament, taking in the House of Commons and House of Lords, as well as getting the opportunity to stand at the Government Despatch Box. The tour was followed by a detailed Q&A, where students could ask Justin anything about his role as an MP, how he got into politics, and what he does to represent them.

Justin recently visited Swindon Academy with Schools Minister, Nick Gibb MP, to discuss the school's efforts to deliver a high-quality education for all, as well as its new Grammar Stream programme.

Justin Tomlinson MP said: "I want as many students from Swindon to take advantage of the opportunity to visit Parliament and see first-hand how it works. Welcoming Swindon Academy to Westminster was an excellent opportunity for the students to learn more about the work I do as their MP, and for me to hear their ideas about what we can do as part of Swindon's regeneration programme".
