Wanstead High School music teacher Ian Sweet has been named Secondary School Teacher of the Year at the first-ever Redbridge Education Awards.
“Over 350 nominations were received for more than 240 members of staff. The winners were chosen by an independent panel comprising a Redbridge councillor, a retired deputy headteacher and a member of the Youth Parliament,” said a spokesperson.
The event was held at Wanstead Golf Club at the end of April and hosted by local celebrity Eddie Nestor MBE.
