Hundreds of teacher, pupils and education people gathered in Glasgow today at the Awards ceremony for the 2011 Scottish Education Awards. This glittering event celebrated the achievements of all the finalists, schools and individuals nominated for this year’s awards and successful in reaching the category shortlists.
Congratulations to all the winners and short-listed nominees, and a special mention for the schools in the award categories relating to global citizenship.
In the ‘Global Citizenship Award, Mearns Primary School (East Renfrewshire) won the prize, with Carmondean Primary (West Lothian) and Mid Calder Primary (also West Lothian) as runners-up.
The ‘Sustainable Schools Award’ was won by Garrowhill Primary School (Glasgow), with Whitelees Primary (North Lanarkshire) and St.Paul’s High School (Glasgow) the other shortlisted schools.
Many of the finalists in other categories also demonstrated examples of significant experience in aspects of global citizenship, with international links, environmental activity, outdoor learning and active citizenship featuring in their implementations of Curriculum for Excellence.
The SEA website now has a full list of the winners and other finalists. The Awards are sponsored by the Daily Record newspaper and the Scottish Government, as a means of recognising and celebrating excellence within our education system.
