On 2 September Professor Winston travelled to Birmingham to receive an Honorary Degree from Birmingham City University.
Speaking of the award, Professor Winston said: “In accepting an honorary degree at Birmingham City University, I am greatly privileged. This large university’s important commitment to education – not only for its own students in so many subjects, but for training students who will improve education at all ages including early years – is very dear to my heart. Institutions like this make a massive difference to our society and to the welfare of the next generation.”
