By Angela Green, Content Executive, H&C News: PACE Award Eastleigh College Hospitality and Catering team.
Eastleigh College’s Hospitality and Catering team have emerged victorious in the Professional Association of Catering Education (PACE) awards, taking home the accolade for Outstanding Teaching Team of the Year.
PACE’s annual awards have been recognising the efforts and successes of colleges across the nation for two decades. 2022 marks its twentieth year in operation, with all entries judged by an independent panel.
Criteria for the Outstanding Teaching Team of the Year award included evidence for continual commitment to learning and a demonstrable impact of teaching upon students and colleagues across not only the department, but the wider College itself.
Sue Lyons, Hospitality Lead at Eastleigh College, said: “I am delighted with this result and for the team I think it’s brilliant to have all our hard work over the past year recognised on a national stage like this. We’ve never won a team award through PACE and to secure one now feels like a fitting tribute to what has been an excellent academic year for the department.”
