A Newcastle school pupil who launched his acting career during the Covid-19 pandemic is already on screens across the UK.
12-year-old Elijay Anderson, from High Heaton, made his debut on CBBC show Class Dismissed season 6 last year, playing the role of Year 8 pupil Kaden.
The comedy sketch show and mockumentary, which is narrated by Bill Turnbull, follows a group of Year 7 and 8 pupils as they grapple with everyday life at Quayside Academy, a school full of colourful and hilarious teachers and staff.
