Mrs Randle Wins Teacher Award at London Ceremony
Mrs Randle, Curriculum Leader of Food at Sir William Stanier, has been recognised with a prestigious Fish Hero Teacher Award at the National Fish Hero Teacher Awards and Conference, held on 20 June 2025 at the historic Fishmongers’ Hall in London.
Hosted by the Fishmongers’ Company and the Food Teachers Centre, the event celebrated the success of the Fish in Schools Hero programme, which ensures pupils across the UK get the chance to prepare, cook and eat fish during their time at school.
Mrs Randle was selected from hundreds of teachers nationwide for her outstanding work inspiring students to gain confidence with fish cookery, explore healthy eating, and learn about sustainability, seafood species, and careers in the fishing industry. Her efforts have given students in Crewe, Cheshire valuable, hands-on experiences that many would not otherwise access.
Mrs Randle said
“It’s a huge honour to receive this award. Seeing students excited to cook and taste fish, many for the first time, is incredibly rewarding.”
Over the last six years, the Fish in Schools Hero programme, funded by the Fishmongers’ Company’s Fisheries Charitable Trust, and managed by the Food Teachers Centre, has delivered free fish to schools, provided teacher training, and supported creative classroom learning. Thanks to this support, our students have been part of a national effort to address falling fish consumption and inspire the next generation of confident, informed home cooks.
