This week saw National Thank a Teacher Day and we’ve been asking our readers to tell us about all the star teachers and support staff in their area.

Many of you got in touch to pay tribute to some of the fantastic schools and staff who have continued to provide support during lockdown.

Here are some of the responses:

Kate Hobson: All the staff at DCHS Alnwick doing an incredible job teaching online and running skeleton school for students of key workers. Absolutely outstanding.

Rachel Cook: All the teachers at Amble Links First School. Doing their best to support the children who are at home. Thank you all.

Ruth Kinghorn: We’d like to thank all the teachers at Chantry Middle School in Morpeth. They have looked after all the key workers' children right through this pandemic, and we are most grateful for that, enabling us to work through as well.

Ashleigh Duke: My daughter Scarlett has the most amazing teacher, Miss Caldwell, year 1 at Red Row First School is incredible. She loves those kids like they are her own. During lockdown she has posted them letters, given the kids books and is always there if I need help with something.
