Iain Duncan Smith has presented certificates to schoolchildren for their project about Parliament.

The Chingford MP congratulated the young pupils at Parkside Primary School in Wellington Avenue, Chingford, after they took part in the project about the historic institution, taught by teenagers from Chingford Foundation School.

Mr Duncan Smith said: “It’s great to see older students helping younger students on education projects like this. We need more young people interested in politics so that’s always good to see.”
