Lesson plan - get involved

The Dying Matters Innovation in Schools award has been set up to recognise some of the outstanding death, dying and bereavement-related work taking place within schools.

Are you a teacher running a dying-related project? Perhaps your school has been running or is going to run a dying-related project, either subject-based or cross-curricular. If so, tell us about it!

To enter for the award, simply complete the application form (link at the bottom of this page) and email to s.turner@ncpc.org.uk along with any photos you have of the project.

You may also wish to nominate a particular student or teacher for special recognition, and you can also do this on the form.

There is no closing date as awards are accredited based on the project fulfilling the criteria.

Each year one project and one person will be chosen to receive a special award and prize.

Please see previous projects for ideas and resources to help you plan your project.
