The , inaugurated in 2006, involve school teams devising a direct marketing campaign incorporating a direct mail element for one of three charity partners, WWF, Barnado's or Beatbullying.
The winning teams were from Leeds Girls' High School, Queen Elizabeth's Boys' School in Barnet, The Mount School in London, Arnold Middle School in Bedfordshire (with two wins) and Banchory Academy in Aberdeen.
The awards ceremony was held at the Magic Circle in London and were sponsored by Royal Mail, Creative Print Group, Iris and The Rapport Group.
Entries were judged by Garry Munns, creative director of Arc Worldwide, Aarron Martin, executive creative director of Arc Worldwide and David Burrows, head of fundraising at TDA.
Mike Barnes, marketing director at the DMA, said: "We already had a strong school following from last year's awards and we're delighted with this year's response. We hope that the scheme will become a regular fixture on the school agenda and finally get direct marketing on the curriculum."
