The Jack Petchey Achievement Award Scheme is running in over 1700 schools, colleges and clubs. Established in 1999, it started in East London, but now operates in all London Boroughs and in Essex. The Achievement Award winners are young people who have gone above and beyond to achieve – perhaps when others thought they might fail.
Each award winner will receive a certificate, pin badge and a book from Sir Jack himself. They will also choose how to spend a £300 grant to benefit their chosen area within the school.
All award winners are invited to attend a prestigious ceremony, to be presented with a medallion in front of their families, friends, and VIPs.
It is a scheme to recognise and celebrate the achievements of young people, to help them take advantage of opportunities and to play a full part in society. Grants of over £35 million have been given since the establishment of the Foundation. Over the course of the school year, Notley High School and Braintree Sixth form can make 9 awards to individual students.
It is not about the fastest, the smartest or being the best. The award is designed to recognise outstanding individual achievements. These achievements can include:
