Star Awards 2017 launch

I am delighted to announce the launch of the 2017 NTLT Star Awards which honour and celebrate the outstanding achievements of children and young people across Trust schools. The Trust and the awards main sponsor Vision for Education are very excited to build on the success of the last 3 years and make the 2017 Star Awards bigger and better than ever.  To do that we need your help to promote the awards and encourage nominations.
