Every year Commonwealth Bank recognises teachers for outstanding efforts, and several of this year's winners work in Logan's south

The 22 winners of this year's awards were selected from over 2000 nominees, and include teachers from Marsden, Browns Plains and Kingston.

Luke Schepen, Head of Community Investment at Commonwealth Bank, said those who had been presented with awards went "above and beyond" for their students.

"The Commonwealth Bank Teaching Awards recognise outstanding educators who go above and beyond to nurture young minds for a bright future," Mr Schepen said.

"Many of us will have fond memories of teachers who made a profound impact on our lives, encouraging us to achieve and prepare us for our future careers.

"We congratulate our 2022 Award recipients for their exceptional contribution to schools across the country."
