EX-STATUS Quo drummer Jeff Rich got pupils rocking all over the school when he taught a music master class in York.

Jeff, who has also played with Queen and Def Leppard, took his drum kit to Park Grove Primary School to demonstrate to pupils the skills he honed as a member of a veteran rock band.

Head teacher Andrew Calverley said: “Having someone of that quality coming in to teach the children was fantastic. To think that children can say ‘I have played along with Jeff Rich of Status Quo’ is pretty impressive.”
