Judicium Wins BESA Award for Outstanding Support Services Provider!

We’re delighted to announce that Judicium Education, part of the Professional Services practice within Supporting Education Group (SEG), has won the Outstanding Support Services Provider award at this year’s British Education Suppliers Association (BESA) Awards.

The awards ceremony took place at the historic Honourable Artillery Company, Armoury House in London, where Judicium was recognised for its exceptional Health & Safety (H&S) service, designed specifically to support schools and multi-academy trusts (MATs).

This award celebrates the impact of our all-in-one Health & Safety service, an education-specific solution that helps school leaders manage compliance, mitigate risk, and maintain safe learning environments for staff, pupils, and visitors.

“We provide expert H&S support so schools can focus on providing outstanding education within a safe, compliant environment,” said Graeme Holland, Head of the Health & Safety Service at Judicium. “This award reflects the expertise, dedication, and values we bring to every school and academy trust we work with.”

Our trusted service delivers 360° support tailored to the education sector, including:
  • A dedicated, expert consultant
  • Unlimited access to high-quality eLearning
  • 24-hour turnaround on H&S advice
  • Fire Risk Assessments by ‘Competent Persons’ - Judicium is the only education-specific provider certified under BAFE SP205

Why Schools Need This Support

Managing Health & Safety in schools is no small task. With diverse sites, growing responsibilities, and often limited local authority resources, we understand schools face increasing pressure to ensure safety and compliance. Judicium steps in with the guidance, tools, and expertise schools need—saving time, reducing risk, and delivering peace of mind.

Saima Nisco, Head of Operations at Landon School, shared:
“The personal touch is invaluable and working with Judicium makes my job much easier. They save time, save money and provide absolute peace of mind.”

Celebrating Our Win

The award is a fantastic recognition of the hard work and dedication of our Health & Safety team. Members from across Judicium, and the SEG family joined together yesterday to celebrate this achievement.

This award is a testament to the trust our schools place in us, and to the teams across Judicium and SEG who deliver consistently outstanding support. Congratulations to everyone involved and let’s keep raising the bar.
