We’re incredibly proud to share that our co-founder, Lee Parkinson, (also known to many of you as Mr P) has been awarded an MBE in the King’s Birthday Honours for services to education and digital innovation 👏
Lee has spent over 16 years in the classroom and has become a champion for teachers everywhere, helping educators harness the power of technology to transform learning. Whether this has been through his inspiring CPD sessions, his entertaining podcast, Two Mr P’s in a Pod(Cast), or the huge impact he’s had on Teachmate, Lee’s impact continues to reach classrooms across the UK and beyond! 🚀
This honour is a testament to Lee’s passion, dedication, and relentless drive to make teaching more effective and enjoyable. As he told Schools Week, “I’m just a normal teacher trying to help make things a bit easier for colleagues. Hopefully, this shows that teachers can make a difference.”
We couldn’t agree more. Congratulations, Lee – we couldn’t think of a more worthy recipient! 🌟
