OUR Guardian Education Awards 2024 honoured the inspirational pupils, teachers and schools in Mid Cheshire.
The annual awards aim to celebrate schools, nurseries and colleges across the area, championing pupils and students, teachers and assistants, and classes and teams.
We wanted to highlight everything that’s good about Mid Cheshire’s educators, shining a spotlight on innovation and best practice across the town.
Ten awards have been given out to pupils and students, teachers and teaching assistants as well as classes and schools and we also handed out an outstanding achievement award, an unsung hero honour and an innovation award.
