Educator Awards 2024

Celebrating the passion, ingenuity and dedication of Activate educators

Welcome!

2024 has been another record year for Future Anything’s Activate program with over 7200 students and 300 teachers in more than 70 schools in across Australia bending the future, one youth-led idea at a time.

While the 2024 National Finals will showcase innovative, scalable, and sustainable student enterprise ideas, they will also celebrate YOU, our Activate educators. In the fourth Future Anything Educator Awards, we’ll recognise the teachers who’ve not only led Activate in their classroom but who have lived it through their own enterprising approach to teaching and learning.

Unveiled at the high profile Future Anything National Grand Final in Brisbane in November 2024, winners will share in over $10,000 of prizes to support their schools’ entrepreneurial aspirations.

Whether you’d like to shine a light on your own entrepreneurial approach, celebrate the expertise of an outstanding colleague, or showcase the best in creativity, collaboration and teamwork, now’s your chance. Nominating is quick and easy! Read about the 2023 winners, 2022 winners and 2021 winners  – this year it could be YOU!
