The Law Teacher of the Year Award - sponsored by Oxford University Press - is a national award aimed at recognizing the vital role that teachers play in the education of tomorrow's lawyers, and rewarding achievement in teaching. Since its launch in 2004, the success of the award has relied on those that know the candidates best - teachers and students - to send in their nominations.

The winning teacher takes home a cheque for £3,000 to spend in any way they see fit.
