Burnage Nominated As Secondary School of the Year - Again!

The best schools and teachers across the country have been shortlisted in this year’s Tes Schools Awards. The Tes Schools Awards, which have been dubbed the ‘Oscars of education’, is a prestigious awards programme which celebrates the best of education across the UK. It has now been revealed that Burnage Academy has been shortlisted in the category of Secondary School of the Year – for the second consecutive year!

The Tes Schools Awards recognises the very best teachers and schools from UK state and independent schools, across early years settings, primary and secondary. 

The shortlist was compiled by a panel of expert judges, including school leaders and experts. The schools and teachers they chose showcase the best of education across the sector within 21 award categories, covering all areas of school education.

Mr Harrison said, “We're delighted that the work of our staff and pupils is again being recognised by Tes. To be shortlisted for two years running in such a prestigious category is a fantastic achievement and shows that boys here are consistently achieving great things, and that our school is rightly seen as one of the very best places to learn in the country.

“I am immensely proud of our staff, pupils and families.”

Jon Severs, Editor of Tes Magazine said, “Congratulations to all the shortlisted entries - the standard was so high this year despite the challenges schools face. It is critical we celebrate excellence and share it widely so we can ensure that the fantastic work happening in education is properly recognised.”

Winners will be announced on 21st June at a glittering gala awards night at the Grosvenor Hotel, Park Lane, in London.

This year also marked the first time Tes operated this awards programme internationally with the Tes Awards for International Schools. More information on the international version of these awards can be found here: https://www.tes.com/schools-awards
