The University of Bath Teacher Champion Awards
Celebrating inspiring professionals who champion students from UK state schools and colleges.
Celebrating School and College Professionals
Each year the University of Bath recognises and celebrates the important role teachers, advisers and support staff play in guiding students on their path to university. We’re especially keen to celebrate professionals who work within schools and communities where moving on to university isn’t always seen as a natural ‘next step’.
Each year we invite undergraduate students at Bath, along with all the current sixth form participants in University of Bath Widening Participation programmes to nominate a teacher for one of our awards. We love to read every single submission and it's heartening to see what an impact teachers and advisers have on their students.

Awards Ceremony 2025
On 25 June, we held our 2025 Teacher Champion Awards Ceremony at our Bath campus as part of our annual Teacher and Adviser Conference. We were delighted to be joined by shortlisted teachers and some of their nominated students to celebrate their wonderful hard work and dedication to helping their students progress to Bath. The Vice-President of Community and Inclusion of the university, Professor Jane White, opened the awards and announced each of the winners of the five categories. The winners were presented with a trophy and all guests were invited to stay for a buffet lunch reception to celebrate. Congratulations to all winners and all shortlisted for the awards this year. You can find more details about the winners from the event below.
