"Receiving this award is a tremendous honour, particularly given the high calibre of tutors associated with Edge Gain. I strive to tailor my courses to the right level and incorporate feedback so I’m very pleased that these efforts have been acknowledged." Colin said.

He added: "Learning from others is a huge benefit of being involved in the programme - there is a great community of not only tutors but also the people who attend the courses.

"Many of the attendees are teachers and they come up with ideas for using creative software in their subjects, be it History, English or even Science. The programme allows me to learn from others and take new skills or knowledge back into my classroom."
