Sir Nic Dakin MP Member of Parliament for the Scunthorpe Constituency
It was great to visit St Lawrence Academy last week as part of #UKParliamentWeek and see the Year 8’s Presidential election!
I was very impressed with each twelve students who put themselves forward. All were quality candidates and the number who came forward is a terrific reflection on themselves, the year group and the Academy.
Returning Officer Darren Darcy – also Curriculum Progress Leader for Humanities – formally read out the results at the year group assembly, with Aukse Skarbaliute declared President and Khizr Muhammad and Niall Holleworth Vice Presidents.
The enthusiasm and energy of all the children has been illuminating. This school has clearly done a professional job running a proper election.
