SOME of the most powerful upholders of law and order on Teesside were questioned by children yesterday.
More than 180 pupils at Billingham Campus School, aged 15 and 16, questioned Chief Constable Sean Price and Judge Les Spittle, of Teesside Crown Court.
The students asked questions about law and order, including speed cameras and fine payments, as well as more personal questions.
Deputy headteacher Sharee Mackerron said: "It was good for the students to see the same issues tackled from different perspectives."
The Question Time-style session was part of the Stockton Behaviour Improvement Programme. Also on the panel was John Dilworth, the area co-ordinator for Victim Support.
