Frey Foundation asks for nominations
The Peter-Hans Frey Foundation, Zurich, has been in existence since 1989 with the purpose of awarding an annual prize for outstanding educational achievement. The foundation is calling for nominations for the 2014 award.
The prize may be awarded to persons who are permanently resident in Switzerland or
Swiss citizens working abroad may be awarded prizes. Prizes may be awarded to teachers at vocational, elementary, secondary and higher education institutions as well as technical schools and institutions, but also to private researchers with practical activities in the field of education.
Teachers at public and private schools and institutions are considered equally. If pedagogical achievements have been made jointly by several people, the prize may be awarded jointly.
The Board of Trustees, consisting of Allan Guggenbühl (President), Rémy Droz, Fritz Osterwalder, Gianni Ghisla and Claudia Crotti, decides on the awarding of the prize, usually CHF 10,000. The next award ceremony of the Peter-Hans Frey Foundation
will take place in October/November 2014.
Reasoned nominations including a small documentation are requested to Peter-Hans Frey Foundation, c/o Allan Guggenbühl, Untere Zäune 1, 8001 Zurich by April 30, 2014. References are welcome.
