The Post 16 department at Wargrave House are thrilled and proud to announce they won the Community Partnership Award, at the largest education awards in the region, the prestigious Educate Awards 2021.

In partnership with in partnership with Copyrite Systems and Ricoh, the awards showcase the work of schools and colleges which are delivering outstanding education and helping students achieve their full potential.

Kim O’Brien, founder of the Educate Awards, said: “A huge well done to all the winners at the schools and colleges. It is extremely important that we recognise the amazing schools and colleges which have supported students, families, staff and the wider communities during the pandemic. The Wargrave House School & College (Lakeside 16-19 and LEAP 19-25 college) post 16 students were fabulous and an amazing addition to have at the event this year. The contribution they made was invaluable and everything they did, they delivered exceptionally well. More than this though, they were wonderful ambassadors and they should each be incredibly proud”.

Wargrave House Lakeside & LEAP College were also runners up in the Most Inspirational 16-18 Education Provider and School Support Star of the Year categories.

Julliet Doherty, Head of Post 16 said, “I am so proud of all our students and staff. This is a remarkable achievement and all down to the incredible dedication of staff and unbeatable enthusiasm and determination from our students. Our Lakeside Cosy Corner Café students supported the event preparation, working alongside the Educate event team, greeting guests and managing the cloakroom. For me, seeing our young people confident and so resilient is the biggest win of the night! A huge thanks and our utmost appreciation to our community partner, Tony Costello from Galliford Try, Rachel Newman from Open Awards, who is one of our supportive accredited learning body, and to all our parents/carers and wider stakeholders who support us”.

The awards took place at the iconic Liverpool Cathedral on Friday 19 November 2021.
