A SHAFTON teacher is up for national recognition after coming top of the class and bagging herself a nomination for Teacher of the Year.
Charlotte Grace, who teaches science at Outwood Academy Shafton, has made the national shortlist for the Pearson Teaching Awards outstanding new teacher of the year category.
Charlotte is the leader of the Science Club at Shafton, which counts among its members Barnsley Chronicle Young Champion student of the year Charlie Steeples.
She is one of just five teachers from across the country nominated.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
