Celebrating Commitment to English Language Education

The Hippo Excellence School Award recognises schools that have demonstrated consistent dedication to English language education, active participation in Hippo – the Contest, and a strong commitment to supporting their students’ learning and achievements.

Through this recognition, Hippo celebrates the important role schools and teachers play in encouraging young learners to develop their language skills, build confidence and embrace new challenges.

Recognising Excellence and Commitment

The Hippo Excellence School Award honours institutions whose continued involvement in the competition reflects a genuine commitment to educational growth and international learning opportunities.

Schools are recognised for their participation history, students’ achievements and consistency over time, with consideration given to schools of different sizes and educational contexts.

The title is awarded for a period of two years, during which recognised schools may proudly display the official Hippo Excellence School logo and certificate.

Awarded schools also receive specially selected educational resources to support English language learning.
