# VIP Visit to Aspire Academy

Mr John Barnett MBE, High Sheriff of Lancashire, visited Aspire Academy recently and was extremely impressed with all of the students and the standard of teaching in classrooms.

Mr Barnett will return to Aspire Academy at a later date to join groups of our student parliament in discussions about various topics that concern them.

Pictured above is Mr Barnett with Mr Topping during his visit; and below in his official uniform.
