🌟Edmund Rice College wins Silver Award in The Lockdown Hero Award for Learner and Community Support! 🌟
Selected from thousands of nominations, Edmund Rice College has been honoured as one of 102 schools for The Pearson National Teaching Awards silver winners!
Edmund Rice College was honoured with a Silver Award in The Lockdown Hero Award for Learner and Community Support for their outstanding commitment to changing the lives of the children they work with every day.
The college responded to the Covid-19 pandemic by introducing a range of initiatives to provide support to pupils, parents, and the wider community, including the Community Hub which provides a digital toolkit of support on issues such as Special Educational Needs, Wellbeing and Mental Health.
Edmund Rice College has now been shortlisted to win one of just 15 Gold Awards later in the year, in a programme which will be broadcast on the BBC.
This is a great opportunity to celebrate the exceptional school staff who have worked wonders during an incredibly challenging time for educators across the country.
The Silver Award winners are being honoured as part of the wider celebrations for ‘Thank a Teacher Day’, a national campaign to honour and recognise school staff for their incredible work.
The celebrations follow new data which shows how the previous year’s lockdowns have significantly changed how families across the country view the role of teachers.
Paul Berne, Principal of Edmund Rice College said: ‘This award is testament to the hard work, dedication and most importantly care demonstrated by the whole school community during an incredibly challenging time. I am very proud of our staff, pupils and families.’
