SEO description: Thrive Education Group is delighted to sponsor the Most Inspirational Specialist School award at the Educate Awards 2026, alongside its training partner, Teach+.

We’re delighted to sponsor the Most Inspirational Specialist School award at this year’s Educate Awards, alongside our training partner, Teach+ Positive Intervention.

Celebrating the people behind great schools

The Educate Awards recognise the schools, staff and pupils of the Liverpool City Region, Cheshire, Lancashire and Greater Manchester, with this year’s ceremony taking place at Liverpool Cathedral. You can see the full list of sponsors on the Educate Awards website.

Specialist schools depend on staff who bring patience, skill and genuine care to every child. Finding those people is what we do.

“Schools are only as strong as the people in them, and the Educate Awards are a brilliant way of recognising the staff who go above and beyond for young people. We’re delighted to sponsor Most Inspirational Specialist School. Specialist settings need people with patience, skill and real care for every child, and finding those people is what we do every day. It’s a privilege to help recognise the schools and staff who make such a difference.”

Ryan Davies, COO & Education Services Director, Thrive Education Group
