Global Educator of the Year Award 2020

Within the teaching profession, there are a number of educators who understand the importance of diversifying their approach to education in preparation for an increasingly globalised world, and we believe their efforts need to be recognised.

That’s why we’re launching our award, to celebrate the great globally focused work by educators.

The Global Educator of the Year award recognises those who increase the standards of quality education through international projects and partnerships.

Applications and nominations are now OPEN.
