Martin Roberts Prize winners 2024
The late Martin Roberts was a founding member of the Academic Steering Group of The PTI and he was instrumental in the establishment of The PTI’s New Teacher Subject Days courses.
Martin was Headteacher at the Cherwell School in Oxford for 22 years, managing its evolution from a secondary modern school with 300 pupils to a comprehensive school with 1,800 pupils judged “Outstanding” by Ofsted by the time he retired. He wrote many textbooks and articles and was a co-author of “Knowledge and the Future School”. In his memory, The PTI established Martin Roberts Prizes in 2022 to celebrate the best new teaching resources created by course participants at New Teacher Subject Days.
