A SPORTING visitor proved to be the match of the day for a school which has netted a reputation for football talent.
Ex-England and Arsenal striker Ian Wright, now a regular TV football pundit, inspired young players during a visit to Richmond School and Sixth Form College.
Head of community sport Tony Potter said: “Ian was incredible and what he told our students matched perfectly the school’s ethos of resilience, independence and the pursuit of excellence."
