Schools work to engage young voters
It's still hard getting young people engaged with politics, according to a senior figure in the Department of Education and Children.
A lot of talk in the run-up to the general election has been about voters feeling disllusioned or disenfranchised with Manx politics.
The Isle of Man first gave 16-year-olds the vote in 2006.
School Improvement Adviser Joel Smith says it's important to keep youngsters interested:
Several sailings at risk or cancelled due to adverse weather
Heysham crossing off today and four in doubt tomorrow
Glencrutchery Road to close to northbound traffic
Manx Utilities carrying out emergency repairs on burst water main
MHK's shock over Hospice announcement
Dr Alex Allinson to quiz health minister over charity's funding
Baldrine Methodist Hall is not being sold by church
It was confirmed at a requisition meeting which was held last night
