Building on the success of the popular cadets scheme, which gives teens a taste of life on the force, the pupils were coming to the end of their mini cadets course when they got the chance to meet the county’s top cop.

Chief Constable Andy Rhodes greeted them at the force’s Western Division headquarters, on Gerry Richardson Way, Marton, lastweek.
