We are pleased to share that the Toronto District School Board’s Communications and Public Affairs team has been recognized with a Coup de Coeur Award for the 2024 Director’s Annual Report. The award was presented through the Canadian Association of Communicators in Education’s annual BRAVO! Awards.
The BRAVO! Awards are the only Canada-wide awards program dedicated to recognizing excellence in school board communications. Each year, CACE celebrates outstanding work in public relations, communications, marketing and engagement, highlighting projects that demonstrate creativity, clarity and impact.
The Coup de Coeur category honours single communication pieces that stand out in overall effectiveness and design. Submissions are reviewed by a panel of judges from across the country and must achieve at least an 85% score to be recognized. This year’s BRAVO! Awards celebrate 36 Coup de Coeur recipients from districts nationwide.
As the Board’s first fully digital Director’s Annual Report, this project reflects our commitment to creating accessible, engaging and user-friendly communication pieces that help our communities understand the work happening across the system.
“I am incredibly proud of the team for this well-deserved recognition,” said Ryan Bird, Executive Officer, Communications & Public Affairs. “The Director’s Annual Report represents months of thoughtful work, collaboration, and care. This award reflects not only the team’s high level of expertise, but also their ongoing commitment to ensuring our students, staff and communities are informed and engaged.”
