A Celebration of Education
Welcome to the website of the Term Time Education awards, brought to you by the Northampton Chronicle & Echo and our main sponsor, The Training Space Education Consultants.
This is a special awards event that recognises the achievements of special people within our schools and colleges; those who have gone above and beyond their normal duties, those who have excelled in certain areas and those who have played a vital role in our schools.
How does the entry process work?

The awards will be presented at St George's Hall, Northampton, on Wednesday 29th June 2011. The Closing date for entries is Friday 27th May. But we need your help, and your nominations, to make that happen so please take the time to make a nomination now.
Why Enter?
This awards event is aimed at recognising and celebrating the outstanding achievements of our students and teachers.
They might be unsung heroes or people who have had a positive impact on the school or college.
They might be young people making a difference with their energy and enthusiasm or people who have put in years of support and care.
We know the judges will have a difficult job choosing between the many outstanding nominations - but we still want to hear about them all!
We know there are thousands of people in the county who work tirelessly to help our students to succeed and we know that our students work so hard to achieve their goals, usually without reward and often without recognition.
The awards will be presented at St George's Hall, Northampton on Wednesday 29th June 2011
We need your help, and your nominations, to make that happen so please take the time to make a nomination now.
