Design notes

The badge keeps the certificate's verdict and nothing else: a red-pen A+, circled twice, on an off-white disc. A navy ring carries TEACHER OF THE YEAR around the top and AWARD across the bottom, with a small dot at each side. The grade reads at once, even as a small icon in a social feed. It fits school awards, district recognition schemes and prizes given by teaching associations.

About

Best Teacher Award Badge Template, Marked A+

After the award evening, a winning teacher often wants to show the honour beyond the school gate: on a professional profile, in a job application or on the staff page of the school website. A digital badge does that job. Schools, districts and teaching associations send it with the best teacher certificate, so the winner can share a verified record of being chosen as teacher of the year.

I am honoured to share that I have been named Teacher of the Year at my school.
