For the third consecutive year we are proud to be sponsors of the Kent Teacher of the Year Awards. The event will once again be held at the Mecure Great Danes Hotel in Maidstone, winners will be announced and presented with awards in May 2018.

The event aims to find the very best teachers, support staff and volunteers across Kent, nominations are open for the public, making a nomination is straight forward and can be done here: http://www.kmcharityteam.co.uk/schools/teacheroftheyear/.

A panel of judges select winners from each local authority area, and then have the tough task of picking the county’s overall champions.

Catherine Spencer said:

Nothing is more important than a good teacher. The academic and pastoral work delivered in class lays the foundations for success for the next generation. I am particularly keen to see nominations linked to physical activity because schools can play such an important role in fostering a love of sport and encouraging green travel to school.

Kent Teacher of the Year launch 2018 from KM Charity Team.

Kent Teacher of the Year is staged by the KM Charity Team and is supported by Kent County Council, Medway Council and the KM Group. Nominations are accepted from January 2 to March 2.
