Hackney schools star
Teachers have some of the most challenging but extremely rewarding jobs. We want to make sure that they get the recognition they deserve. We’re looking for outstanding teachers who continually strive for their pupils, support them to achieve, who have improved results, who are innovative and forward thinking, and make a real mark on our children and young people. What they do shapes and changes lives.
But it’s not just teachers who make a good impression on children, parents and carers; whether they are staff who are cooking meals, cleaning, managing facilities and keeping things running, caring for our early years children, providing brilliant clubs or special educational services – without these dedicated staff – schools would struggle to reach the high standards we expect. Often in the background, these members of staff are essential to meet all of our children’s needs on a daily basis.
Lifetime achievement
This award is to recognise a teacher or schools staff who has proved their dedication and commitment to Hackney. They’ll have served over 15 years in their organisation or in service to children in Hackney. The judges will be looking for someone who has made an outstanding contribution to the borough, and deserves recognition for being an amazing ambassador over their years of service.
