Abstract | A good education is the necessary element at the foundation of efforts to lift people out of poverty, reduce inequalities, tackle prejudices, skill the next generation to face a job market being transformed by technology, and train the scientists and leaders who will answer the enormous challenges society faces from climate change to pandemics and food insecurity. The World's Best School Prizes contribute to this vital cause, which celebrate schools everywhere for the pivotal role they play in developing the next generation of learners and for their enormous contribution to society's progress, especially in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. The winners of the five World's Best School Prizes--for Environmental Action, Community Collaboration, Overcoming Adversity, Innovation, and Supporting Healthy Lives--share a $250,000 award. As important as these funds are to improving education for children, especially in poorer contexts where resources are stretched thinnest, the prizes are about far more than just providing financial support to schools. Instead, they serve as a powerful platform to surface the expertise of trailblazing schools that are transforming the lives of their students and making a real difference to their communities. This article shares the stores of the five winning schools so that others might be inspired by their examples. (ERIC). |
