Pupils switched places with staff for the second annual Student Takeover Day at a Suffolk school.
The day began at Farlingaye High School, in Woodbridge, with Georgie Wright taking assembly, as she and Hugh Bowman stepped into the shoes of headteacher Sue Hargadon.
Elsewhere Lily Nash was shown the ropes on reception, while Benjamin Vinton and Olivia Campbell-Barr took on kitchen duties.
Year 13 student, Georgie said: “Ms Hargadon’s responsibility is huge – and she does this every day!
“We have an immense amount of respect for our teachers, but to know what goes on behind the scenes makes us respect them even more.”
Hugh, a year eight pupil, added: “It’s quite a lot of pressure in not much time – but Ms Hargadon seems to know what’s happening everywhere.”
Georgie later led a board meeting which included discussions on leadership and the school budget.
