TES editor Jon Severs said:
“It is more important this year than ever before to celebrate the fantastic work schools do, because in the past 12 months they have gone above and beyond to ensure pupils were able to be educated and be kept safe in extraordinary circumstances. We were inundated with entries that demonstrated just how hard the pandemic made the work of schools, and just how amazing the response from staff has been. We are looking forward to showcasing , as we do every year, just how vital our education professionals are to every facet of this country. “
Headteacher, Emma Leigh-Bennett says
“I am incredibly proud of what our staff, students, governors and parents have achieved during such an incredible time. This shortlisting on the back of our nomination reflects the fact that Kingsdown truly champions each and every student”
