Excellence in Teaching Award

The Dr Alan Druery OAM Memorial Award for Excellence in Teaching provides recognition for exceptional Queensland teachers (with over four years’ experience) who have made outstanding contributions to student learning and school community.

Nominees will have demonstrated an exceptional ability to empower colleagues, a positive impact on their school community, and an outstanding contribution to the teaching profession.

This is a broad category recognising the many facets of teachers’ exceptional work in and out of the classroom. As such, nominations should detail the projects, programmes, and pedagogies the nominee has worked on and delivered in their school or during their career.

Past recipients of this category were nominated for their work in school agricultural programmes, promoting 'home languages' in school communities, and innovative pedagogies that benefit colleagues’ teaching practices and student learning.
