Shine a light on teachers | Introducing the Top 50 Finalists of the Global Teacher Prize #GTP2020

Over the last few weeks, in a world turned upside down, we’ve been daily reminded how much we rely on the world's teachers.  Now, more than ever, we must shine a light on their profession.

As global education systems adapt to a new and unfamiliar terrain, the one voice that should never be drowned out is that of the teacher. As schools have been forced to shut their gates, parents and students know their true value – and the lessons they teach us all far beyond the classroom.

We are honoured to announce the Top 50 outstanding Finalists for the 2020 Global Teacher Prize. Supporting teachers as they continue to inspire, even as the world shifts under their feet, isn’t just the right thing to do, it’s the wellspring of our future.

Please join us in congratulating them and acknowledging the amazing work they do!

The Global Teacher Prize is a US $1million award, presented annually to an exceptional teacher who has made an outstanding contribution to the profession. The Varkey Foundation established the prize in 2014, to recognise and celebrate the impact that teachers have around the world – not only on their students, but on the communities around them.
