Awards 2020
Awards 2020

The American Leadership Boards Educational Leadership Award honours the contributions of individuals who have led significant and sustained initiatives to improve teaching, curriculum, teaching spaces and resources, and policies and procedures that promote effective teaching & learning. Each of these areas of leadership is likely to involve the establishment and fostering of strong collaborative networks among educators and educational leaders.

Most educators will agree that the level of excellence a school achieves is very much related to the level of leadership provided. It is the combination of the educators ability to manage, interest in staff and students, respect for learning, and vision of the future that set the tone for the school’s efforts to educate our children. The American Leadership Boards Educational Leadership Awards seek to recognize those educators who go beyond the day-to-day demands of their position to create an exceptional educational environment. In presenting these awards, The American Leadership Board hopes to encourage excellence in school leadership and to contribute in a substantive way to the improvement of education across the Globe.
