Principal of Innovation Award

We live in a society where innovation, creativity, and entrepreneurship are essential skills for any student’s future success. Therefore, Youth Ideathon has instilled a Principal of Innovation Award to recognize the efforts of School Principals who have transformed their schools into hubs of innovation and entrepreneurship.

The award endeavors to honor School Principals who have introduced innovative programs, embraced new teaching methods and nurtured a culture of innovation.
