FORMER Bromsgrove School headboy Graham Orme has graduated as a flying officer from the Royal Air Force College at Cranwell.

Graham, who left the school in 2001 and whose grandfather lives in Bromsgrove, first gained a masters degree in physics at Bristol University before going on to complete his officer training at the historic RAF college.

He now goes on to fly with the RAF as a weapons systems operator.

Graham's father, David, who is also an RAF officer, said: "Bromsgrove School did so much to prepare Graham for these challenges."
