The roadshow was in conjunction with the University of Bedfordshire.

Dr Deepshikha, science teacher at TBSF, said: “The event was aimed at providing students from various study streams with an opportunity to examine, collect, and photograph evidence of a crime scene.

“I am pleased to report that the event was a great success. The students enjoyed and learned from it, and we received positive feedback from attendees.”
