Students travelled to a historic city to get a real insight into life at one of the country’s top universities.

Pupils from Bishop Stopford School, in Brick Lane, Enfield, took a trip to the University of Cambridge.

Workshops and tours were led by Newnham College’s students and staff.

Student Lois Delong is aiming to study medicine at university. She said: “There are a lot of misconceptions about Cambridge. Every child should be able to visit because going to new places opens your eyes to wider horizons.”
