Dear Colleague
I’d like to give a heartfelt thank you to every teacher, tutor, lecturer, school and college leader for the incredible work you’ve done to support students achieving the grades they have worked so hard for this year. Despite the unprecedented circumstances of the last eighteen months, you’ve brought subjects to life in learners' homes and during this time, you have adapted, reskilled, upskilled, supported, and gone above and beyond.
