Corrinia Vincent received the accolade in the Excellence in Special Education Category, beating off competition from thousands of entrants across the country. The national awards are a huge event in the teaching calendar, celebrating the amazing work carried out by the profession.
Leading the way in EYFS, Corrinia has been recognised for the excellent support she provides her team of teachers and TAs by offering advice, support and strategies.
