A STATE-of-the-art languages suite has been opened at Clitheroe Royal Grammar School.

The Lord Lieutenant of Lancashire, Lord Shuttleworth, opened the Chatburn Road two-storey building which boasts a digital laboratory with 32 new computers, which is for wider community use as well as for the school, with evening classes starting next year.

The suite is the result of the school's successful bid for specialist language status two years ago.
