Stars in Education – Recognising teachers who go the extra mile

Recognising teachers who go the extra mile
Argo’s Stars in Education is an annual campaign that recognises teachers who go the extra mile in their communities by being inspirational role models to all around them, changing lives through their actions. Argo decided to start the Stars in Education project, and in just six years it has grown from strength to strength with the quality and variety of entries that is truly inspiring. We encourage you to send your uplifting stories of a teacher who has shone in a project outside of the classroom and has gone above and beyond in their community, creating a positive ripple effect throughout the region it touches.
The competition is national with the awards taking place in the latter part of the year. Entries have historically been submitted by teachers themselves or by learners. It does not matter who submits the entry, it is all about recognising and appreciating the valuable role that teachers play in shaping our communities.
You too can be a part of recognising and building excellence in the education landscape of South Africa by submitting your entries for the Stars in Education Award. Closing date for entries has now been extended to 7th September to allow for more submissions.
Parents, teachers, students and the general public are invited to enter community projects managed or started by exceptional teachers for the Stars in Education Awards 2013 by contacting Argo on +27 21 865 2813 or [email protected]
