A head teacher in York has received national acclaim, in what's becoming an award filled year.
Rod Sims, of York High School, was honoured earlier this year in the Educate North Awards.
He has since added to his tally, picking up a prize at the Education Business Awards.
Mr Sims won the "Education Business Leadership Award - Secondary" at the ceremony in London, on June 12.
After York High School received an inadequate rating in 2017, Mr Sims has overseen a series of changes to get to a point where Ofsted now rates them as Good.
