Pupils at a High Wycombe school are celebrating after winning an all-expenses trip to Madrid after inventing a unique educational game for children.

Team Spot, a group of nine students aged 14 to 15 at The Highcrest Academy, scooped first place in the Hyundai Skills for the Future final after spending just £2 on making the game.

The game invented by the team asks children to identify cars, traffic signs and other objects on the road – and then cover them up with a magnet as soon as they spot them.

Andy Best, Young Enterprise Co-ordinator at the school, said: "We are very proud of the team. The award is well-deserved for all the hard work and commitment they put in.

"It's all the more impressive because the team members were very young compared to their rivals from the other groups.

"The game is also an excellent way of keeping children busy in the back of the car by getting them interested in the road."

The company, part of the Young Enterprise scheme, will visit the Spanish capital for three days in June to compete in the European final of the contest.

Should they win that, they will find themselves on a plane to South Korea for the world final.

The members of the prize-winning Highcrest team were Connery Ademokun, Suwaibah Ali, Joe Buckridge, Andrew Burgin, Brian Chong, Louis Straughair, Charlotte Sullivan, Mustafaa Tanveer, and Jamie Watson.
