The MEN Schools Awards are back for 2022 - and with the judging closed, our finalists for this year have been selected. The awards, hosted by Manchester Evening News, and with headline sponsor One Education, will be held on July 8 - for more information, visit the official website.
Each year, we take the opportunity to highlight the impressive work being done in schools across Greater Manchester. Teachers, students and schools alike demonstrate an outstanding dedication to education - to improving the quality of learning for all involved, and making school an environment in which everyone can reach their full potential.
This year is no different, and we received a slew of nominations for the awards - detailing accomplishments across a range of categories. Whether it's a class that plays an active role in its community, a teacher who goes above and beyond for their students, or a school that has dedicated itself to student welfare - there are a variety of ways that individuals and organisations in Manchester have distinguished themselves - and we can’t wait to celebrate them on July 8.
Ahead of the awards, we’ve put together a list of the educational inspirations that have made it onto this year’s list of finalists. And don't forget, every finalist will receive four free tickets to the ceremony. Additional tickets maybe purchased at the website. Tickets are £30+VAT. The shortlist of finalists is as follows:
