Funny Awards UK

Ten years ago a Global phenomenon was launched with the first edition of “Funny Employee Awards” by comedian Larry Weaver. These cheeky awards have been a long-time favorite in the United Kingdom.

We've since expanded the collection with "Funny Office Awards", "Funny Award Certificates", and "Funny Teacher Awards".

These Funny Awards UK photos are from Feversham Primary Academy in Bradford, England (courtesy @FevershamSchool on Twitter).

These funny certificates are all from "Funny Teacher Awards", found here: http://www.funawards.com/teacher-awards/

Note that some have been altered with customized wording. It's quick and easy to make your own funny award certificate titles and nominations.

Teacher Appreciation Week

Teacher Appreciation Week is here! Also known as National Teacher Week, it occurs on the first full week of May in the United States and Canada. Teacher Appreciation Day occurs on Tuesday of Teacher Appreciation Week.

If you want to do it up right, see if you can top the fine folks over at "Sweeten Your Day Events". In 2014, they threw a themed Hollywood Teacher Appreciation Week at their school, entitled "You're a Star".

Here are some of the things they did to make the teachers feel special:

• "One of the most popular things that the teachers look forward to during this week are the door decorations!
• About 2 weeks before the event I put up flyers around the school to get the students and teachers excited.
• We also sent home reminders sheets to all the students of the daily activities so they could come prepared.
• Each day we treated the teachers and staff with food or refreshments in the lounge to enjoy.
• Each morning we had the principal play a little Oscar music and announce a few funny teacher awards over the speakers. It was a great way to spotlight everyone. Here were some of my favorites..."

From 101 Funny Teacher Awards by Larry Weaver

These are from my collection of 101 Funny Teacher Awards. I have to tell you, it feels good to see how people make fun and creative uses of these awards. They really went the extra mile! 

"We went around to all the classrooms and delivered the certificates along with a little star trophy. The kids all clapped and cheered for their teachers, so adorable!"

Small trophies with the award add that extra touch!

Thank you to Jen H. for your wonderful ideas. I hope it inspires you all to have the BEST Teacher Appreciation Week ever!

Funny Student Awards

I'm often asked if our collection of Funny Teacher Award certificates can be used as Funny Student Awards? The answer is a resounding yes!

Although the book wasn't written for specifically for students, many of the awards could apply to school kids. Here are a few examples:

• The Energizer Award: for tireless energy
• The Germophobe Award: for cleanest desk.
• The Coal to Diamond Award: for most valuable under pressure
• The Glass Half Full Award: for most optimistic
• The American Idol Award: for being most likely to break into song.

These are just a few of the funny awards ready to print with no customization needed. There are dozens where you could change a word or two to make them applicable to students. For some you'd have to use the customized template to reword, but still it is a HUGE time-saver for you!

You could use these funny awards for elementary, preschool, kindergarten, middle school, high school, graduation, or reunions. Bookmark our site and check back for more funny kids awards, silly student awards, ideas, certificates, titles, templates, categories and more funny student awards!
