The Kent Teacher of the Year Awards were started to mark the vital contribution that teaching staff make to our community. The awards recognise the expertise and dedication that is the hallmark of an outstanding teacher.

Nominations are open now and close on 21 February 2021. Award categories include primary, secondary, newly qualified teacher, non teaching member of staff including midday supervisors and caretakers and a volunteer award, which includes members of the PTA and governors.

A panel of judges select winners from the local authority areas, Ashford, Canterbury, Dartford, Dover, Gravesham, Maidstone, Medway, Sevenoaks, Shepway, Swale, Thanet, Tonbridge and Malling and Tunbridge Wells.

Winners will be announced at a ceremony in May at the Ashford International Hotel.  The awards dinner has a fundraising element with additional seats available to purchase on a paid basis and a raffle. Proceeds raised from the Kent Teacher of the Year Awards go to literacy and road safety projects in the region.
