ST PAUL’S WINS TRINITY: SCHOOL OF DISTINCTION INNOVATION AWARD FOR THE SECOND

Year

The Trinity College Schools of Distinction Award is given to schools that promote and strive for a college-going culture in their school in partnership with parents, students, staff, and the wider community. We are incredibly proud to achieve the Innovation Award for the second year.

The three core practices under which a school applies for the award are Pathways to College, Mentoring and Leadership in Learning. The judges commended St Paul’s on the many initiatives that are taking place in St Paul’s, our commitment to hearing staff and student voices and our dedication to delivering a quality educational experience for all.
