#ThinkLanguages 2020 Champion Team Submission

It's time to submit your details for the #ThinkLanguages Champion Team 2020 Awards! We'd like to sincerely thank all involved in putting on such great events around the country for #ThinkLanguages 2020. In a challenging year for everyone, it's an amazing achievment to organise such a festival of colour, culture and fun, and a great national celebration! Hopefully you've all enjoyed your experience. We'd love to hear a bit more about your events, your opinions about the experience of organising them, the help you got from others and the support you got from Languages Connect.

We hope to have an online ceremony in late January to share ideas and award prizes to those who truly went above and beyond to bring languages to life in their schools. So this is your opportunity to tell all!

Closing Date for submissions is Friday 8th January.
