Education Scotland are supporting the Thank a Teacher campaign in Scotland to highlight the positive impact teaching staff have in our society.

Education Scotland are working in partnership with the Pearson National Teaching Awards – the organisation behind the awards – to celebrate the amazing work of our teachers in Scotland.

It is free to send a card with a personal message through the Thank a Teacher website and anyone can send a card; pupils, parents, grandparents or colleagues all have the opportunity to say thank you to a teacher, teaching assistant, headteacher or team.

Gayle Gorman, Education Scotland Chief Executive, said “Saying thank you could be for a number of reasons, from helping your child settle in, last year’s class teacher, helping you though a difficult time or for helping you when you were struggling. It is important that we take time to recognise the hard work of teachers across Scotland and I encourage people to get involved in this campaign to let teachers know just how much they are appreciated.”

Education Scotland is proud to be a partner in the #ThankATeacher campaign, allowing you to nominate a Scottish teacher to receive a special thank you card for making a real difference. Nominate at ​https://bit.ly/2shxPAj
