Manitoba's Celebration of Excellence in Teaching - Minister's Awards

Manitoba’s Celebration of Excellence in Teaching – Minister’s Awards recognizes outstanding achievement by Manitoba educators. The awards were initiated in 2006 and continue to honour creative, innovative and effective teaching practices.

Awards are presented in four categories:

  • Teaching Excellence
  • Outstanding New Teacher
  • Team Collaboration
  • Outstanding School Leader

Teaching Excellence
Three awards will be presented: one to an early years teacher (K-4), one to a middle years teacher (5-8) and one to a senior years teacher (9-12). If a nominee teaches at more than one level (ex. K-12 music teacher), the evidence and examples on the Nomination Support Form must focus on the level for which the teacher is nominated.

Outstanding New Teacher
One award will be presented to a new teacher with a maximum of two years teaching experience as of June 2008.

Team Collaboration
One award will be presented to a team of teachers (maximum of three) from K-12.

Outstanding School Leader New this year!
One award will be presented to a principal or vice-principal.

Manitoba Education, Citizenship and Youth invites you to honour outstanding educators in your community by nominating them.
