The city's favourite awards ceremony for teachers, learning support assistants, teams and head teachers return to Portsmouth Guildhall on Thursday 9 June to recognise the immense efforts of colleagues in schools, academies and colleges. The Teach Portsmouth Awards celebrates their achievements and showcases best practice in 10 award categories. 

A virtual awards ceremony in Portsmouth for the city's superstar teachers, support teams and head teachers has revealed the winners in 8 award categories on Thursday 8 July. This year's event was hosted by broadcaster Reverend Richard Coles through Zoom video conferencing. Over 180 colleagues joined the digital event as we celebrated the achievements of everyone. 

A list of top teachers, support teams and leaders have been revealed in the people's choice category for the Teach Portsmouth Awards Live. In January, those who live in Portsmouth were asked to nominate a school or college team member who had gone above and beyond to support their community during the pandemic.

To celebrate the immense efforts of teachers, support staff and head teachers in schools and colleges across the city, Teach Portsmouth has launched a new initiative to recognise their achievements. 

 With nominations closing for the Teach Portsmouth Awards Live on Friday 7 May, the time feels right to update our readers on what's next as well as introducing some exciting new developments including our celebrity host.

With senior leaders now nominating their colleagues as part of the Teach Portsmouth Awards, we're pleased to introduce an all-new category: the people's choice award. For the first time, local residents will be able to nominate a Portsmouth-based teacher, support team or leader who have gone above and beyond during the pandemic.
