Anne Frank Awards

The Anne Frank Awards is a highly regarded education and recognition programme aimed at celebrating acts that echo the spirit of Anne Frank.

The Awards, given in two categories - Young People and Educators -  recognise people who have shown great personal strength, moral courage, and determination to stand up for what is right – above all those who have made a positive difference to the lives of others.

The new free teaching resource, How Great Can You Be?, to be launched very soon, is designed for the brand new Citizenship curriculum at Key Stages 3 and 4 and will be downloadable from the dedicated awards website.

Award winners will come together for a ceremony and reception in central London in July 2008. They will then enjoy a VIP trip to the Anne Frank House with a two night stay in Amsterdam.
