Annual Blackboard Virtual Awards 2021 – Friday 26 February

Awards will be presented in eight categories to include Belfast Trust School of the Year (in partnership with the Maritime Foundation) and Educationalist of the Year.

These categories recognise the exceptional endeavour of schools and educators across greater Belfast in response to the pandemic.
