The University of Northampton is hosting the presentation event for the East Midlands region in Leicester on 30th June 2016.
Higher Level Teaching Assistants (HLTAs) from across the East Midlands region have been nominated by their schools not only for their impact on the progress in learning and development of their pupils, but for their commitment to the wider curriculum and the school community.
A panel of education professionals from a range of settings and NAP board members within the region confirmed the exceptional qualities of the nominated candidates, but did narrow this down to a short list of 4; the winner will be announced at the presentation event.
Consideration was given to evidence associated with: their contribution to advancing pupils’ learning utilising their own specialist knowledge; their high aspirations for all pupils and their support in achieving this; their commitment to their own continued professional learning as well as their commitment to the wider school community.
The short listed candidates (alphabetically) are:
• Sue Brown from Malcolm Sargent Primary School, Stamford, Lincolnshire
• Jill Clarke from Dronfield Henry Fanshawe School, Dronfield, Derbyshire
• Tracey Sandford from Lutterworth College, Lutterworth, Leicestershire
• Sarah Streeton from The Pingle School, Swadlingcote, Derbyshire
