Working with them will be John Calvert, managing director of Airforce.

He said: "Attempting to create a world record radio advert has been a dream of mine for some time and partnering with Tanbridge House School is the perfect opportunity. Children are key listeners of the radio and I am so excited about expanding their knowledge on the industry and helping them create the perfect script for this very special project."

The record attempt will be part of a new learning experience for the pupils at Tanbridge House and the initial phase takes place on Monday next week when John attends a year 8 assembly to discuss what it takes to create a powerful message on the radio and how adverts are conveyed by the listener.
