Shine news

In July, finalists from the Shine School Media Awards enjoyed their moment of glory at Stationers’ Hall, with each team or individual claiming its gong from any of a number of categories. On September 20th, the winners of Kingsbridge Community College, Ermysted’s Grammar School and Draper Academy claimed the second part of their prizes with a masterclass day at TES.

Hello and happy new (school) year from Shine! I hope you all had relaxed and enjoyable summer holidays.

The Autumn Term is here and as we launch the new season of Shine, we’re really delighted to be featured in The Spectator.

Shine Chair Alison Strachan (among other luminaries) spoke to journalist Katherine Whitbourn about school magazines and the Shine competition.

After a fantastic awards day at Stationers’ Hall yesterday, we’re proud to announce the Winners and Highly Commended students at the Shine School Media Awards 2019.

Following judging day on Monday 20th May, we’re delighted to announced the list of schools who are shortlisted for the 2019 Shine School Media Awards. We’ve had some truly remarkable entries this year and this list reflects the huge diversity of students who have worked so hard, from all over the country.

We’re very fortunate to have Daily Mail Consulting Editor Liz Hunt on our Committee. Liz also judges the Shine Awards each summer and comes to our Awards Day. So… if you come along in July be sure to say hello and seek some advice from her.

In this article, Liz tells us the fascinating story about how she came to be a journalist.
