Welcome

Looking back, we can all remember a special teacher who played a critical role in our lives. This teacher encouraged you to think outside the box, helped you feel good about yourself and encouraged you to continuously strive to do better.

The Prime Minister's Awards for Teaching Excellence program is Canada's way of recognizing our best teachers, promote what they have achieved and share their innovative and successful teaching practices.

To date, over 1,300 outstanding teachers have been recognized with considerable benefits to their schools, their students and themselves.
