The winners of the Education Business Awards, sponsored by Viking, have been revealed during a glittering luncheon ceremony on 14th June at the Royal Leonardo Hotel in St Paul's, London.
The Education Business Awards recognise the vital and inspirational work of the education sector as it shapes our future generations.
Schools and colleges continue to operate during difficult times. While still feeling the effects of the pandemic, schools forge ahead despite the unrest caused by teacher strikes, funding issues, workload, teacher shortages, and the cost of living crisis. The Education Business Awards continues to seek out the unsung heroes and celebrate their incredible achievements in all aspects of school life.
For the first time in 2023, the awards recognised the individual leaders paving the way in the primary and secondary sectors through the EB Leadership Award, as well as innovative educational resources that can support teaching and help to enhance pupil engagement through the Education Resource Award.
Other awards were presented to those who showed excellence in catering, environmental achievements, school buildings, IT provision, SEN inclusion, and many others.
