Barry announces UK Parliament Teacher of the Year award

I am incredibly pleased to announce that St Gregory’s Simone Ryan has been presented with the UK Parliament Teacher of the Year award!

Simone is a Personal Social Health Education Co-Ordinator and the Head of Citizenship at St Gregory’s Catholic Science College. Hosted by the Speaker in the Houses of Parliament, Ms Ryan was bestowed with this award for creating lessons that drive pupils to campaign for issues that they feel passionately about, such as raising fire awareness in the home, in light of the Grenfell tragedy.

Ms Ryan has organised School elections at St Gregory’s which mirror general elections and referenda, as well as arranging the delivery of Digital Surgeries through the Politics Project.

Congratulations to Simone for being a fantastic example of the many outstanding teachers and educational leaders here in Brent.
