On Friday, I attended the NCTJ’s student council forum where I was presented with the ITV News Award for Broadcast Journalism. 

Victoria Polley ITV News broadcast award

I won the award for achieving the best combined result in the broadcast exams in the country while studying at University of Kent’s Centre for Journalism.

ITV News broadcaster Nina Hossain presented me with the certificate and £250 at the ceremony, which was held at News UK.

I really enjoyed  the day and met students studying for their NCTJ diploma across the country, as well as getting some useful advice from working journalists.
