Prestige Nigeria Education Awards 2023 

At the very core of a well-functioning and prosperous society are the dedicated and hardworking educators who pour their hearts and minds into shaping the next generation of leaders. The much-anticipated Nigeria Teachers Summit 2023, which proudly serves as the kickoff event for the renowned Prestige Nigeria Education Award 2023, promises to be more than just an ordinary summit. It is an extraordinary opportunity for, not just celebration and collaboration but also for meaningful conversations and actionable steps to empower and equip teachers with the tools they need to shape a brighter tomorrow for the nation.

The Prestige Teachers Award:

As part of the commitment to celebrating teachers on this special day, schools are cordially invited to nominate their most outstanding educators for the prestigious Prestige Teachers Award. The award is a testament to the recognition and appreciation that excellent teachers deserve for their hard work. We also encourage individual teachers to nominate themselves when they register for the summit.

Prestige Teacher of the Year Award:

In addition to the Prestige Teachers Award, nominated teachers will also have the chance to compete for the esteemed “Prestige Teacher of the Year” award. This coveted award comes with a whopping one million naira (N1, 000, 000) cash prize that serves as further motivation for teachers to give their best every day in the classroom and to inspire the young, bright minds of tomorrow. Together, we can build a better and brighter future, and the Nigeria Teachers Summit 2023 and Prestige Nigeria Education Award 2023 are the perfect starting points to achieving this goal.
