Between wall-to-wall media interviews I fitted in three hours at Malpas Court School this morning.

It was a very special day with a visit from six principals of school in the Indian Province of  Ramshedpur.. There are all close to the Tata steel company that sponsors their vast schools. They cater for up to 3,500 children aged from 3 to 18.

The Schools Assembly was a magnificent display of talent. The highlight was a vigorous re-enacted of the Chartist march on the Westgate. I talked to the older children about the importance of the Chartists – laying stress on the importance of wages for MPs.

This was a proud day for Malpas Court School that greatly impressed our Indian visitors.

Llongyfarchiadau athrawon a phlant.
