The Scottish Education Award winners were announced this week. Top schools and teaching professionals from across Scotland received their  prestigious awards at a ceremony at the Hilton Hotel on 14 June.  All three education ministers attended the awards and the Education Secretary Michael Russell congratulated the winners.

Notably all three Finalists in the Probationary Teacher of the Year category appeared to have Creativity at the core of their work with young people – drawing upon the strengths of drama, visual art, singing and heritage to empower and enthuse their pupils.
