BGT act Twist and Pulse wow Oldbury school pupils

Britain's Got Talent act Twist and Pulse dropped in on a Black Country school to wow pupils with their dance skills.

Ashley Glazebrook and Glen Murphy – who were runners-up in the TV talent show in 2010 and are training another dance group in the competition this year – performed a 15-minute routine at Moat Farm Junior School, in Oldbury, yesterday.

The visit was organised as a reward for pupils who have designed an emblem for a new campaign to promote child safety across Sandwell.

Called Junior Police Education Group, or Jpeg, the campaign promotes safety on the internet, in schools and in the community.

Sandwell United Parents and West Midlands Police came up with the idea.

Sandwell United Parents founder Shelly Showell, a 33-year-old mother of five, said: "We wanted a young group to visit pupils and when I saw Twist and Pulse on Britain's Got Talent I thought they were exactly what we were after.

"We rang them up and they were only too happy to help.

"The kids loved seeing them and Twist and Pulse thought the Jpeg scheme was a very good idea."
