Papplewick has won a special national award, the Alice Rose Award, in the Talk Education Awards for Innovation in Education.

The very special Alice Rose Award is awarded in memory of Talk Education's inspirational co-founder Alice. Much loved not only by the Talk team but by schools and parents alike, Alice sadly passed away in May 2022, but remains a driving force behind TE – and it is thanks to her brilliant vision, her positivity and inspiration that Talk has grown into the huge success story it is today as a leading independent guide to the world’s best independent schools.

Talk Education said: “In honour of Alice, the judges selected two schools that embody the qualities Alice was most passionate about - a school where children are allowed to be children, one that supports growth and learning but allows them to climb trees and get muddy knees, where confident, nurtured, happy children enjoy their childhood. A true home-from-home."

"The two winners were chosen by the whole Talk Education team, as well as by Alice's husband James and their three young boys.”
