I had the huge honour this week in congratulating Fullhurst Community College after they were awarded a Silver Pearson Teaching Award for the School of the Year – Making a difference category. 

I am thrilled that Fullhurst has been awarded this prestigious prize. It’s a real testament to the dedication, passion and hard work of the teachers, who always go the extra mile. 

This week they have been nationally recognised for making a huge difference to young people’s lives – I could not be prouder of them all.
