A teacher in his twenties who has dedicated his career to supporting young people's education is celebrating a milestone of his own.
Akeim Mundell, 28, has been appointed assistant principal at William Hulme's Grammar School, over-taking peers to become one of the UK's youngest assistant headteachers.
He now hopes to inspire the next generation of students in south Manchester, motivated by a 'lack of representation' from local communities in high schools.
