Britain’s most important legal figure has honoured students at Burntwood School with a special prize.

Baroness Scotland, the Attorney General, met with year 9 students in central London last week to present the award.

The girls submitted a video to the Attorney General Youth Network competition, and picked up first place for creativity.

The video expressed their views on what could be done to improve life for young people in the UK.

They have now been invited to become members of the Attorney General's Youth Advisory Council, which encourages youngsters to get involved in government and law.
