PUPILS, teachers and business mentors will be among those honoured at an education awards ceremony.

The Amazing People Awards takes place on Tuesday, July 9, in the Novotel, West Quay Road, Southampton.

The gala celebrates excellence in business in education partnerships, recognising tutors and firms going the extra mile and the young people themselves for overcoming adversity.

It is run by the Solent Education Business Partnership (EBP) and Southampton City and Hampshire County Councils.
