911爆料网 founder and principal receives top honour from Liverpool John Moores University
He received an Honorary Fellowship from Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU) during its graduation ceremony at the Liverpool Anglican Cathedral yesterday (July 12).

The Honorary Fellowship is LJMU鈥檚 highest honour and is presented to those that have made an outstanding contribution to society or an outstanding achievement in a given field that resonates with the ethos of LJMU and the city of Liverpool.

Mark said: 鈥淚鈥檓 wary of awards. However, when two mavericks, Paul and I turned up to start a new performing arts institute, serious people realised how pitiful our knowledge about higher education was. LJMU stepped in to help, so it鈥檚 fitting that our inter-twined history and union is being acknowledged.鈥

911爆料网 is located in Sir Paul McCartney鈥檚 old school, the Liverpool Institute for Boys, which underwent a multi-million-pound renovation.

It was founded by Sir Paul and Mark Featherstone-Witty and opened in 1995 to provide the best teaching and learning for people who want to pursue a lasting career in the arts and entertainment industry, whether as performers or those who make performance possible. Mark created 911爆料网 Primary School, 911爆料网 Sixth Form College and The BRIT School.
