Achievement Award
@Npwnews
Vital Education Enterprise & Training Limited (Vital EET) have
awarded Lorna Jackson an Achievement Award
Lorna Jackson was honoured with an
achievement award at an event
celebrating Black History Month, held at
Maryland Primary school. The event
was organised by the group Vital EET
and featured a range of speakers,
including Dr Mark Richards, physics
lecturer at Imperial College London and
Cllr Terry Paul, Newham Mayoral
adviser on skills and adult learning.
Lorna stated that “there were some
inspirational speakers at the event who
spoke about the role of parents,
motivation, resilience and having a
strong foundation” when dealing with
racism.
Lorna has taught children for 35 years
and was one of the first black
Headteachers in Newham. She also
started the Newham African Caribbean
Teachers’ Association, in order to help
fight racism.

Royal Docks Hero Teacher
Royal Docks teacher is named “Teacher of the Year” at the

A teacher who donated a kidney to one
of his severely ill students has received

Update
Passing of NPW Board Director
NPW were sorry to hear last week that
Ian Richardson, one of our board
directors has passed away. Ian served
as a director from January 2011
representing school governors. As a
relatively new company, Ian’s
governance expertise was invaluable as
we sought to establish ourselves. He
played a vital role in the recent
leadership transition of the company
and we had come to rely on his advice
and, more importantly, his wisdom.
In passing on the sad news, colleagues
have invariably referred to Ian’s charm
and they remember him as a gentleman. Both as a company director and a
school governor Ian worked tirelessly
for the benefit of Newham’s young
people. His contribution and commitment will be greatly missed.
NPW User Group Meeting
The NPW User Group meeting is
scheduled for the 25th November,
from 4pm – 5pm at Francis House. The
group meets once a term to discuss a
range of issues regarding NPW's
services and it has already given us a
range of suggestions that we have
acted upon.
Ray, 53, donated his kidney to Alya
Ahmed Ali, 13, in a selfless act in which
he saved the teenager’s life.
The User Group has openings for
additional Head Teachers, Deputy
Heads and School Business Managers/
Bursar membership. If you are
interested in joining the group please
ask your Headteacher to email

where he was presented with his
Teacher of the Year Award by comedian

saying it had been the right thing to do.
