Crime lessons
Officers from Osterley & Spring Grove Safer Neighbourhood Team visited West Thames College in Isleworth on May 22 to raise awareness about drugs and street crime.
Students spent hours quizzing the officers on subjects such as cannabis use, carrying knives, tasers and terrorism.
A knife bin was also put in the college for a week, encouraging students to 'bin a knife and not a life'.
Supt Simon Phipps said: "We don't have a lot of knife crime but I have a suspicion that it is still thought to be acceptable to carry a knife and I want to change this."
