Each year the University of Bath recognises and celebrates the important role school and college teachers play in guiding students on their path to university. We’re especially keen to celebrate teachers who work within schools and communities where moving on to university isn’t always seen as a natural ‘next step’.

Each year we invite undergraduate students at Bath, along with all the current sixth form participants in University of Bath Widening Participation programmes (Pathway to Bath, Discover Bath, Target Bath, Step Into Success and Find Your Way) to nominate a teacher for one of our awards.

We love to read every single submission and it's heartening to see what an impact teachers have on their students.

Shortlisted teachers and winners will also be invited to be part of the University of Bath Teacher Champion programme and be part of future events and CPD opportunities.
