SCHOOLCHILDREN danced their socks off during a workshop in Redcar yesterday.

Children aged between 14 and 16 from Laurence Jackson, St Peter's and West Redcar schools and Gillbrook Technology College took part in the session, organised by Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council. Learning mentor co-ordinator Amanda Bramley said: "The children brought along their learning mentors, who are adults who work in their schools. The idea is to get disadvantaged pupils working in partnership with adults. The kids thoroughly enjoyed it and had a really positive morning."
