Jack is an inspiration to young people in our school. He has a transformational effect on learners who have lost their confidence, their motivation, and in some cases their willingness to be involved in education altogether.
Last year’s winner was Lucy Sharp, Education and Early Years T Level Coordinator and teacher at Derby College. Working extremely hard over the previous two years to develop the new Education and Early Years T Level, Lucy played an integral role in ensuring students received the best quality education and achieved the highest of their ability.
A talented musician, who once performed with his group at Glastonbury, Jack uses his music and creativity to hook in disengaged learners and make a difference in their lives. He has been described by his colleagues as someone who embodies the school vision and values and has supported many learners to success.
