Last Call for Teaching Awards nominations!
Deadline for 2009 nominations is 1st March
Myleene Klass, who last year presented the 2008 UK ceremony alongside Jeremy Vine at the London Palladium, understands the importance of shining a spotlight on outstanding teachers. She said: ‘Teachers have the power to release every child’s potential, they deserve to be recognised.’
Most people know a teacher who has really inspired them, so why not show how grateful you are and nominate them for a Teaching Award at www.teachingawards.com. Anyone can nominate whether you are a pupil, parent, colleague or friend. Anyone can say ‘thank you’.
Make a nomination and play a vital role in recognizing brilliant professionals in your local schools – headteachers, teaching assistants and school governors, as well as teachers. Schools are recognised through the DCSF Award for Sustainable Schools.
Teaching Award winners agree that the spotlight can shine on a whole school and make everyone feel good. ‘Being nominated for a Teaching Award was wonderful,’ says Rhoda Edwards. ‘The whole school felt valued and so proud. Pupils, teachers, parents, governors; we all felt that someone had made an effort to turn around and say ‘well-done’ - what a fantastic feeling’.
Teachers make it happen, say thank you and nominate now: www.teachingawards.com. Nominations for 2009 close 1st March. Nominations for 2010 are open from March 2nd.
