Welcome to the fellowship

Every year Teaching Award judges recognise and celebrate literally hundreds of outstanding headteachers, teachers, teaching assistants and governors and there are now over a thousand Teaching Award winners across England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Teaching Awards Fellows are Teaching Award winners and those who currently act as judges for the awards.  The group represents an exceptional cross section of leading education professionals and those who have a profound interest in education.The Teaching Awards’ mission is to celebrate excellence in education and share expertise.  We aim to fulfil the second part of our ambition through the network of Fellows which was established this year.The Teaching Awards is always keen to hear from Fellows. If you have won a Teaching Award and haven’t heard from us for a while please let us know by e-mailing philipm@teachingawards.com.

Learning Links - A CfBT Education Trust and Teaching Awards Collaboration

Our second case study project this year 'Learning Links' sponsored by CfBT Education Trust has now been launched. The project follows three groups of teachers as they visit various CfBT funded projects around the world. The first stop is Singapore where Teaching Award winners Caroline Haynes and Nicola Stanfield visited various schools to see how the Ministry of Education in Singapore supports the learning of English within its schools. We then move on to Hyderabad, India. In India, Teaching Awards winners Dai Jones, Mary O’Kane and Tabitha Sawyer visited a number of schools, all with very traditional ideas of teaching and from varying economic situations. The aim of this project was the mutual exchange of ideas and good practice. Finally Teaching Award winner Alison Marshman takes us on a trip of Kenya as she recalls the differences in special needs education in Kenya from her own school in the West Midlands. All of these exchanges were based around the principle that we can learn from all areas of the world to improve our ‘best practice’. As Alison notes in her story, “There is so much that can be gained, on both sides, when teachers from developed and developing worlds get together”.
