UK National Awards 2009

The UK eTwinning Awards are now in their fourth year. The Awards recognise excellent eTwinning projects that have taken place in the school year 2008-09.

How to enter your project for the UK Awards
Your project will automatically be entered for the UK Awards when you receive an eTwinning Quality Label during 2008-09. If you have not yet applied for a Quality Label for this school year, there is still time to do so. All you need to do is make sure you apply for the Quality Label by 18 May 2009.

This year, Awards will be given to projects in the following categories:

  • Age 4-10
  • Age 11-14
  • Age 15-19

Each category will have a winner and a runner-up, as judged by our panel of experts. The Awards Ceremony will take place at the eTwinning conference in Nottingham on June 13th. The winners will each receive ICT equipment for their class or school.

If your 2008-09 project has already received a Quality Label there is no need to complete a further application.  You can find out more about last years National Award winners here.
