Winners will be announced at the Vice-Chancellor’s Education Awards Ceremony at Pembroke College on Wednesday 10 June hosted by the Pro-Vice-Chancellor, Education, with the Vice-Chancellor in attendance. The work of teaching award winners from across the University's academic divisions will also be showcased at the event.
I have seen first-hand that colleagues across Oxford are pushing back the boundaries of education. These awards recognise the commitment of our staff and students, and shine a light on the significant contributions to educational innovation and enhancement that is taking place across the University. - Martin Williams, Pro-Vice-Chancellor, Education
