Judges
Who judged the awards? Click Here to find out.
A panel of distinguished experts and professionals from across the sector judge the entries. The panel is representative of the diversity of disciplines and organisation that make up the sector.
The judges will have the knowledge and experience to assess each entry according to its objectives and available resources and budget.
Judges who have a connection with any entry will not be allowed to vote on that entry.
What did the judges look for?
The aim of the NurseryWorld Awards is to recognise excellence. The judges will not be looking for bland, reassuring statements, but for examples of excellent organisations, teams, individuals, projects and initiatives, and equipment providers, properly profiled in the submission and supported with hard facts and/or illustrative material.
How will the entries be judged?
The judges will study all the submissions received, looking for examples of exceptional work. The judging teams will discuss the entries and each judge will award their own mark to each entry, with the finalists and winners being calculated from these marks.
The judges will have the right to move entries between categories if they feel the new category will be more appropriate.
