Calling all principals, teachers and parents!

Has your school said “No thanks” to commercial schemes such as supermarket vouchers and branded materials?

The INTO and the Campaign for Commercial-Free education would like to recognise and promote schools who have adopted a commercialism policy in line with INTO guidelines (see www.into.ie).

Representatives of the schools will be invited to attend a ceremony in the Teachers’ Club on Friday 26th September @ 8pm and given a certificate of achievement for display in their schools.

If your school has taken a stance on commercial schemes and wishes to be
considered for these awards, contact the CCFE at chairperson [at] commercialfreeeducation [dot] com.

All welcome.
