Moxham with her award
The University of Northampton presented its annual Court Award
recently to Joanna Moxham, Divisional Leader in Teacher Education,
School of Education.
The Court Award has been awarded each year since 1995 to an
employee of the University who has made a significant contribution
to the higher education institution. The award is traditionally
presented at 'Court', an annual meeting which brings together
people who have an interest in the life and work of The University
of Northampton. Court is an opportunity for the University to
report to the wider community on its achievements and future
plans.
The award was made in recognition of Joanna's 30 years of
contribution and leadership of the successful Initial Teaching
Training (ITT) programmes within the University's School of
Education.
She was presented with the Court Award by the University's
Chairman of the Governing Council, Deirdre Newham.
Joanna commented: "I am delighted to have been recognised
with this award. It was totally unexpected and a great honour. 80%
of our teacher graduates go on to work in the county so throughout
my time here, I have seen our graduates go out into the workplace
and progress throughout their careers. This award goes to the whole
team - our success in teacher education is from great teamwork
within the School of Education."
