Over 120 people honoured for their contributions to education and children’s services
The New Year 2017 Honours list has recognised over 120 people for their contribution to education or children’s services.
The list of award recipients covers all phases of education in schools, colleges and universities, as well as those who have contributed in an outstanding way to children’s services, such as foster carers, children’s social workers, and those working in adoption and in early years settings.
The highest honours went to Mary Warnock, former mistress of Girton College, Cambridge, who has been made a companion of honour for services to charity and the education of children with special educational needs and Helen Fraser, chief executive, the Girls’ Day School Trust (GDST), for services to education.
Jonathan Slater, Department for Education permanent secretary, said: “I would like to congratulate all of the award winners in the New Year Honours List. Their outstanding work is improving the lives of children and young people through excellent care and education, and promoting women’s and LGB&T equality as well as diversity more widely.”
