ISA Awards 2024: Finalists announced

ISA is delighted to announce the Finalists and Highly Commended schools for the ISA Awards 2024. 

The ISA Awards recognise the excellence and innovation demonstrated across the independent sector. The 15 individual award categories allow us to celebrate the breadth of achievements across the diverse range of schools within our Association. Our membership has grown to 674, which is reflected in the strength of entry numbers this year.  

Finalists have showcased the outstanding impact on the students that they educate in a variety of fields. Judges have also awarded Highly Commended honours to schools that were not shortlisted, but whose work is deemed worthy of special recognition. 

ISA thanks all schools who entered the ISA Awards 2024, helping to make this year a success. The number of entries reflects the commitment of educators to celebrate excellence and innovation and to use this to inspire best practices not only across ISA, but throughout the education sector as a whole. 

If you are an ISA Member, we hope to see your school represented in the Awards next year. Click here to see the finalists and highly commended entries.  

Rudolf Eliott Lockhart, Chief Executive Officer of the Independent Schools Association (ISA), added: 

“Once again, the ISA Awards have been a celebration of the innovative approaches to education from across the full range of our diverse membership. The broad selection of represented categories reflects the breadth of accomplishments by our schools; there is the potential for every type of school to excel within them. 

A place among the finalists, as well as being highly commended, is a great achievement. This year featured an impressive range of entries, and the final nominees were strong. The Awards ceremony in November, where the winner will be announced, will be a celebration of every entrant, as well as a recognition of those who have won.” 

The ceremony will take place alongside the ISA Autumn Study Conference. We strongly recommend representing your school there, especially if you are a finalist. For more details and to book your tickets, click here.
