PUPILS will become DJs for a day when they visit a North-East radio station tomorrow.
Eight youngsters, from KingsMeadow School, Gateshead, will spend the day at Metro and Magic Radio, in Gateshead, where Metro's drivetime presenter, Wayne, will give them a guided tour.
They will have the chance to make their own jingles and record a piece to be aired on Wayne's show. Students will also be shown how local and national news is gathered.
KingsMeadow teacher Joan Jackson said: "It's fantastic that Metro and Magic has agreed to help the pupils in this way. It is essential they complete as much research as possible before their GCSE media studies exam in May, and this is the best preparation they could possibly have."
