Charlize Theron And Priyanka Chopra Are Coming To Dubai For A Very Important Reason

Avatar

This event grows year on year and it’s such a brilliant shout out to people who do such important, but sometimes thankless, work.

The Global Teacher Prize takes place again in Dubai on March 18 and this year Charlize Theron, Priyanka Chopra, Brian Lara, Taron Egerton, Gina Torres, Sarah Rafferty and Sir Mo Farah will all attend the event to praise the educators who have been nominated for their outstanding contribution to the teaching profession.

The awards idea was created by Sunny Varkey, Founder and Executive Chairman of the GEMS Education Group; and the aim of the prize is to raise the profile of the profession, while providing the winner with an $1 million prize fund…

Bill Gates announced the top 10 finalists this year and paid tribute to their work

“When you think about what drives progress and improvement in the world, education is like a master switch—one that opens up all sorts of opportunities for individuals and societies.

“And research has shown that having a great teacher can be the most important factor that determines whether students get a great education.

“Finalists were selected based on a rigorous set of criteria, including their proven effectiveness in inspiring students and helping them learn.

“Just as important, these teachers are leaders who have innovated in the classroom and mentored their colleagues.

“They have demonstrated the kind of collaboration—teachers and schools working together—that can give all students the opportunity to get a great education”.
