Jargon Buster: OffThe prize, an Epson A3 photo-printer, will go to the school whose newspaper has made the most effective use of an original photograph to
help tell a news story or feature.
The competition typically attracts over 700 entries from primary and secondary schools. Students are given one day to create a newspaper or news portal. A panel of teachers and journalists select winners. Photographs will be judged according to their relevance, impact, colour, composition and print quality.
Drever continues: "Newsday relates closely to Epson's belief in education though technology. It is an exciting opportunity for
students, providing an opportunity for vocational learning and allowing pupils to experience first hand, a day in the life of a journalist. The
Newsday competition has been running for 14 years and has grown in popularity. We eagerly await the entries and talent the competition
reveals."
