Announcing the winners of the 2024 Teach Early Years Awards

These standout resources will help you transform your setting…

With a multitude of providers offering diverse resource options, sifting through and discovering the finest choices can be a time-consuming endeavour for busy teachers. That’s where our annual Teach Awards come in.

Annually, we extend an open invitation to companies and organisations to submit their educational resources for evaluation by a panel of expert judges, aiming to pinpoint the ones most deserving of schools’ time and attention.

This year, the Teach Early Years Awards spanned six categories, with entries judged according to the following criteria:

● Does the resource meet a genuine need?

● What impact is it likely to have?

● How easy is the resource to implement and use?

● Can the resource be adapted for use in different settings?

● Does it represent good value for money?

You’ll find the full list of 2024’s winners below. We’d like to say a huge thank you to everyone who entered, and congratulations to our winners!
