NAPCE Awards 2022 – ENTRY NOW OPEN

Entry for the National Awards for Pastoral Care in Education 2022 is now open.

The Awards is the first and only scheme based in the UK to recognise great practice of pastoral care providers in the education sector.

We have been delighted with the success of the NAPCE Awards since we launched in 2020 and the initiative continues to go from strength to strength.

We hosted a packed and exciting Presentation Evening in September 2021 and we are planning to host an in-person event for the first time in 2022, all being well.

The Awards will be part of a programme of events to celebrate NAPCE’S 40th anniversary in 2022.

The closing date for all categories this year will be Monday May 30th, 2022, so don’t hang around, get your entries in now.

Just like previous years, the finalists of the National Awards for Pastoral Care in Education will be selected by an independent judging panel and invited to attend the ceremony to share the experience with peers and find out who wins each Award.

Pastoral School of the Year

Nominations are encouraged for awards in different categories from schools and educational establishments and you DO NOT need to currently be a member of NAPCE to take part.

NAPCE Awards 2022 is an excellent opportunity to share good practice in pastoral care and through our social media, website and those of our partners, the Awards raises awareness of where pastoral support is making a real difference in the educational experience of young people.

The Awards also encourages new initiatives and ideas in pastoral care and will recognise the contributions being made to developing policy and practice in pastoral support.

This is an opportunity to recognise the impact the work of pastoral staff is having on the achievement and well being of young people.

The decisions about prize winners in each category will be made by a panel of invited professionals who work in pastoral care.
