Introducing the SWECET DNA Awards: a celebration of our colleagues

 

 

We’re delighted to introduce the SWECET DNA Awards, designed to shine a spotlight on our fabulous staff members who drive positive change and innovation within our Trust.

We understand the importance of acknowledging the outstanding efforts and contributions of our colleagues who work towards our core values of developing our people, nurturing our differences, and aspiring for excellence.

That’s why we’re thrilled to announce the launch of our inaugural internal awards; a celebration of excellence and innovation throughout the academic year.

 

The SWECET DNA Award Categories

 

The Awards will consist of three main categories that are connected to our DNA values, including:

 

 

The ‘Developing our People’ Award

 

This category honours those who go above and beyond to support the development of their colleagues. From effective line management to mentoring and peer-to-peer support, these individuals play a pivotal role in empowering their team to reach their full potential.

‘Nurturing our Differences’ Award

 

Here, we celebrate innovation in addressing specific challenges. Whether it’s a new approach or a fearless willingness to try new methods, these individuals or groups exemplify creativity in adding value to our settings or the wider Trust.

 

The ‘Aspiring for Excellence’ Award

 

We shine a light on staff who have made a remarkable contribution to pupil success. Their efforts have not only inspired excellence but also have encouraged a culture of achievement and growth within our academic community.
