The Exceptional Team Award

This award is given to a team that has delivered an outstanding project and/or initiative that has benefited the staff and/or student community in the last year.

Criteria for this award:

  • Demonstrable commitment to each other, working with integrity, inclusion, cooperation and respect.
  • Creates a supportive working culture where each member of the team feels valued and appreciated.

The Student Support Team in PPLS are CONSISTENTLY excellent in their timely, well-informed, and thoughtful responses to enquiries from students and personal tutors, on a huge range of complex issues. Behind the scenes there must be a really well-thought through structure for planning, since they achieve so much….and nothing ever seems to fall through the cracks. I cannot sing their praises enough.The quotation text is a mandatory field.
