At a glittering ceremony in central London, the TES announced the winners of its first TES Schools Awards 2009. This video on the left shows the winners together with host Rory Bremner and the great Johnny Ball.

These awards celebrate and reward the professionalism and flair of those teams making an outstanding contribution to primary and secondary schools in the maintained and independent sectors. The awards encompass new facilities, innovation in teaching, leadership and community involvement.

The Times Educational Supplement launched the TES Schools Awards last December and have been delighted by the response. The panel of distinguished judges has been impressed by the range and quality of the hundreds of entries. They wanted to recognise outstanding innovation, so they looked beyond the traditional methods of measuring success. The standard of entries was so high that they faced an extremely difficult task in deciding between those on the shortlist.

The awards were held at the London Hilton Hotel on Park Lane on 9 June 2009. We congratulate the winners and commend the shortlisted candidates.

Createvents sponsor Windsor Saints FC

Simon Cross (Manager / Secretary of Windsor Saints) writes :

"The Sponsorship given by createvents has been really appreciated. The club has been running for many years now but we, like many teams in the current climate, have struggled to secure sponsorship over recent years. We are certainly grateful for the support that Createvents have given. And it seems that some of the company's success rubbed off on us as we secured promotion with a very young side. So a big Thankyou goes to Createvents - here's to more success ! "
