The pupils at the museum
Teenagers took over a museum for a day.
Pupils from Alec Hunter Humanities College in Braintree learned everything from taking telephone enquiries to looking after the collections at Braintree District Museum.
It was part of National Takeover Day, which gave youngsters the chance to work with adults for the day and be involved in decision-making.
