Shine Award winners featured in The Standard
We’re still basking in the glow of last week’s Shine School Media Awards and the news keeps getting better.
Shine has been featured in The Standard this week, celebrating in particular the London Press Club’s ‘Scoop of the Year’ prize.
London Press Club Chair and Editor Emeritus of The Standard, Doug Wills, said:
“The London Press Club Scoop of the Year award recognises students who go the extra mile to find great stories on their doorstep. Whether that’s a revealing interview with a local politician, helping support a local public service under threat or telling a human interest story that makes the reader smile”.
It was a truly exceptional year for student journalism, and we’re already getting excited for what’s next.
best wishes
Richard Chapman
Chair of Shine
