Students from the Swedish town of Finspang, 200km south west of Stockholm, discussed alcohol and its problems during joint lessons with health and social care students at Didcot Sixth Forms.

For good measure, schools liaison officer Pc Colin Cox explained the legal framework surrounding the sale and consumption of alcohol in England.

Eleven students and two teachers from Bergska Skolan, Finspang, spent a week with the Didcot Sixth Forms - following a visit to Sweden by nine south Oxfordshire sixth formers in February.

The busy return visit by the Swedes included a day of work placement at Kids Unlimited Nursery, Didcot's Lydalls Nursery School, Ladygrove Park Primary School and Northbourne Primary School, Didcot, the town's Youth and Community Centre and Wiggy's World, Abingdon.

The visit included trips to Didcot Railway Centre and the Oxford Story, and to Westminster Abbey and the London Eye.
