An award-winning teacher and author has broken the world record for the largest rap lesson, thanks to more than 850 London school pupils.

MC Grammar broke the Guinness World Record at the New Wimbledon Theatre in south-west London on Monday.

During the 30-minute lesson, 859 children from 18 schools were taught how to rap and rhyme.

MC Grammar said: “We created the biggest rap lesson in the world ever and it was epic! A massive moment for so many children and hopefully a memory they will treasure forever.”
