Nominees from Egypt and Jordan are now eligible for the Mohamed bin Zayed Award for Best GCC Teacher, which covers eight nations.
It’s got a total prize pool of AED 8 million to reward educators from public and private schools that follow the Ministry of Education curriculum.
One winner from each of the eight participating countries will walk away with AED 1 million.
Applications have to be submitted by March 2020, and the award ceremony will be held in October 2020.
