Every teacher and school who has been nominated should be incredibly proud – it’s a fantastic achievement. We are looking forward to showcasing, as we do every year, just how vital our education professionals are to every facet of this country. Teachers, leaders and support staff have all played an enormous role as schools have battled with immense challenges over the last few years: this is our chance to say thank you for all that they do.

“After two years of virtual awards ceremonies, we are looking forward to celebrating our education heroes in person once again.”

Prep Head Vics Richardson commented  “Aaron is our current English Lead and as well as being a phenomenal teacher, he is an inspirational character. He is constantly developing his talents, pushing the boundaries of his comfort zone and never settles for anything less than perfection.”
