STUDENTS from a Newton Aycliffe School took part in an initiative to help them understand more about industry.

The Year 12 students from Woodham Community Technology College participated in a Business Dynamics Conference.

The purpose of the conference, presented by Karen Humble, was to help the pupils learn about industry and its processes in a real and practical way.

The annual event for Woodham Sixth Form students is supported by County Durham Business and Education Partnership. Business Dynamics is a registered charity sponsored by industry.
