Mr Simpson has won a Silver Teaching Award in The Pearson Award for Teacher of the Year in a Secondary School - a fantastic achievement and one which was celebrated with the whole school community on ‘Thank a Teacher Day’ on 16^th June. Staff and students paid tribute to Mr Simpson and the wonderful service he has given to all the pupils, past and present, in the Media Studies Department.  

As a Silver Teaching Award winner Mr Simpson will now be considered for a Gold Teaching Award which will be announced at the UK Ceremony in October – an event which Mr Simpson will be invited to. In the meantime, Mr Simpson can look forward to tea at the House of Commons on 13^th July and then the televised UK ceremony at the East Winter Garden, Canary Wharf, London in October.

Well done Mr Simpson - a fantastic achievement!
