Published 5th February 2020

Thank you all for the great entries we’ve received so far. Nominations will close as planned on Friday 10th April, however, due to the current pandemic we have regretfully decided to cancel this years’ Inspire Awards scheme. Everyone who has been nominated will receive a certificate as normal and all 2019/21 nominations will be carried forward and included in a bumper awards celebration in 2021.

Celebrating the best of learning, creativity, innovation, service and excellence from 1 April 2019 to 31 March 2020
