There have already been almost 200 fantastic nominations for the 2015 NTLT Star Awards from 22 schools – but more are needed! The closing date for nominations is growing closer and in particular we are looking for nominations for the Green, Inclusion, Leadership and Local Hero awards (please see examples below). Please help us find the young stars of North Tyneside and give them the recognition they deserve. The deadline for nominations is Friday 27th March. You can nominate a star quickly and easily online at www.ntlearningtrust.org.uk/
The NTLT Star Awards 2015 are generously sponsored by local employers and remain open to all schools in North Tyneside. Anyone can make a nomination and every child nominated will be considered a winner in his/her own right and receive a certificate. 48 finalists, their families and Headteachers will be invited to a glittering awards ceremony at the Discovery Museum on 1st July and receive prizes worth almost £100 each!
