Despite the fact that architecture affects everyone's daily lives, it's not a subject embedded into our school education system although as a dynamic and constantly evolving subject, it can make learning more accessible and relevant. Architectural design can aid maths, science and other curriculum subjects as well as helping to connect with our surroundings. Through exploration, creativity and critical thinking , architecture unlocks full learning potential.

The Architecture into Education Awards open to all teachers, educators and professionals collaborating with schools. Entries should demonstrate how the subject of architecture is being used to teach, inspire, engage and motivate students. 

Submissions should include evidence of how the subject of architecture is being used to support learning in one or more subject areas, as well as evidence of student engagement and/or success. Entries will be judged on the quality of the submission and how it has been used to support learning.
