What would we do without teachers!

Teacher Champions dedicate their time and energy to supporting students throughout the Competition period. This year, we were proud to work with over 100 teachers as part of the Growing Future Assets Investment Competition. We couldn’t do what we do without the support of teachers and schools, and thanks to them, we are enthusing young women about careers in financial services. 

To celebrate their incredible contributions, we’re inviting students and Competition Coaches to nominate their Teacher Champion for this special recognition. 

We have been blown away by the support we have received on this new recognition and have received over 50 submissions already.  Here are a few anonymous quotes from the nominations: 

(The teacher champion) gives her time, energy, and encouragement generously and without hesitation, creating an environment where students feel safe to try, to learn, to ask questions, and to grow. Her warmth shines through in every message, every update, and every moment she invests in her pupils. She celebrates their successes, steadies them through tough moments, and brings joy and genuine care to everything she does. 

Her impact is felt not only by her pupils, but also by those of us who have been lucky enough to work alongside her. She truly embodies the very best of what a mentor and educator should be. She is incredibly deserving of this recognition. She made my Future Asset experience amazing this year.” 

Massive thank you to the Teacher Champions who work with Future Asset we really couldn’t do it without you!
