A TEACHER has received a masters degree after completing a correspondence course.
Richard Meacher, a PE teacher at Richmond School, was awarded an MSc in Sports Sociology at a ceremony at the University of Leicester earlier this month.
Mr Meacher, 36, from Darlington, said: "It was very hard work studying and working at the same time, but I had a great sense of achievement on completing the course. I'm trying to find something else to do now."
