A PE Teacher from Bromsgrove has won a prestigious title.

Caroline Sidell from South Bromsgrove High School, won the PE Teacher of the Year award at the 2009 Sunday Times Sportswomen of the Year Awards.

The awards, in their 22nd year, celebrate high profile female athletes - previous winners include Paula Radcliffe and Denise Lewis - and also recognises women at all levels of British sporting life, including administrators, students and PE teachers.

Mrs Sidell was nominated by year 13 pupil Maimee Morris who said: “Her enthusiasm for her subject is exceptional - she always ensures we have the best possible opportunities, giving up most of her free time to run numerous clubs and activities.

“Her devotion, dedication and love for teaching and helping people are extraordinary and I feel this the recognition that she deserves.”

The award was presented at a ceremony at the David Beckham Academy in London.
