Cherwell students enjoyed a trip to Westminster last month to see democracy in action as part of Local Democracy Week.
Accompanied by Cherwell District councillors Dan Sames and Melanie Magee, pupils from seven schools were given a tour of the House of Lords, central lobby and Westminster Hall.
Cherwell’s young people’s champion, Cllr Sames, said: "Visits like this bring democracy to life for young people. The more they learn about how our political system works the more they are likely to take an active part in elections and politics as they get older."
