Help the Express celebrate our teachers and classroom heroes

At this time in the school calendar in previous years we have often published pictures of pupils and their teachers before they move onto a new school.

But this year we won't be able to do this - so your Express would like to try something a bit different.

We would like to give every pupil the chance to say a special thank you to their teacher, in print.

We plan to publish a favourite photo of your child alongside their own thank you message in our July special edition.

Your teachers have been working above and beyond over the recent months to make sure that children are supported as best they can be while navigating the challenge of homeschooling. It has been tough - and none more so than on the children themselves who have found it difficult not to be in school with their classmates and teachers.

Teachers really have been on the frontline so this year we are organising a special Thank You Teacher 2020 feature to praise the hard work of those who have supported you and your families during this unprecedented time. And we need your help to celebrate that hard work and dedication.

In order for your child to feature, you will need to send us a picture of your/their favourite photo of themselves, and a short message of thanks for their teacher.
