Categories for Advancing Race Equality Awards
Anti-Racism School of the Year Award
This award aims to improve race equality within education settings. It is open to schools, further education colleges and universities that have demonstrated a zero-tolerance approach to prejudice, racial bullying and racism by improving racial literacy/anti-racism education and by promoting safety and wellbeing for black and minority ethnic pupils, students, staff, parents, carers and those in the community.
Anti-Racism Teacher of the Year Award
Do you know a teacher who is a role model when it comes to championing respect for difference and the advancement of racial equality? Then we need to hear from you! Our Anti-Racism Teacher Award recognises educators who go above and beyond when engaging young people, parents and colleagues to change attitudes, behaviour and overall culture in education.
Anti-Racism Art Ambassador of the Year (Primary School)
Our Primary School Ambassador Award targets pupils who have used the medium of art to demonstrate a significant commitment to promoting diversity, equity and inclusion within their educational community. This award celebrates individuals who have actively used their artistic talents to send a strong anti-racism message.
Anti-Racism Art Ambassador of the Year (Secondary School)
This category is for secondary school students who have highlighted an anti-racism message through the prism of artistic creativity – be it drawing, poetry, song, music or another medium. It celebrates those who have shown and continue to show a commitment to tackling racism and to teaching their peers why inclusivity matters and what it looks like.
Young Leader
This category recognises young people aged 18-30 who work within their communities, further education colleges or universities to challenge discrimination and to achieve a more inclusive future. Maybe they work building intercultural trust, peace work at grassroots level or supporting the rights of marginalised people. If you know a Young Leader, tell us about them.
Community Champion of the Year
This category pays tribute to the impact created by the selfless efforts of individuals who devote countless hours to causes close to their hearts.

Let’s hear it for all our community champions.
