Sunbeams Grammar School, Block-F, North Nazimabad, Karachi, has nominated Ms. Shabana Butt and Ms. Samreen Naz for the FPSP Best Teacher Award 2026, organized by the Federation of Private Schools Pakistan (FPSP).
The nomination recognizes the contribution of both educators to their students, school, and wider learning community. Their names have been put forward by Sunbeams Grammar School as its nominated candidates for this year’s award.
At this stage, Ms. Shabana Butt and Ms. Samreen Naz are nominees and have not yet been declared finalists or winners. FPSP is currently reviewing the nominations and will select the finalists before announcing the final award recipient or recipients at the official ceremony.
Recognizing Excellence in Teaching
Teaching is about more than completing a curriculum. The strongest educators help students understand new ideas, build confidence, overcome challenges, and develop the skills they need beyond the classroom.
The FPSP Best Teacher Award 2026 provides schools with an opportunity to recognize teachers whose dedication and contribution make a meaningful difference to their students and institutions.
For Sunbeams Grammar School, the nomination of Ms. Shabana Butt and Ms. Samreen Naz is a moment of recognition for two members of its teaching community and an opportunity to celebrate the work that takes place in its classrooms every day.
Sunbeams Grammar School’s Nominees
Ms. Shabana Butt
Ms. Shabana Butt has been nominated by Sunbeams Grammar School for consideration for the FPSP Best Teacher Award 2026.
Her nomination reflects the school’s recognition of her contribution as an educator and her role in supporting students throughout their learning journey.
Being nominated by her school places Ms. Shabana Butt among the educators being considered through this year’s FPSP award process. The final selection remains with FPSP.
Ms. Samreen Naz
Ms. Samreen Naz has also been nominated by Sunbeams Grammar School for the FPSP Best Teacher Award 2026.

Nomination Is the First Stage of the Award Process
It is important to distinguish between a nomination, finalist selection, and the final award.
Ms. Shabana Butt and Ms. Samreen Naz have been officially nominated by Sunbeams Grammar School. However, FPSP is still reviewing the nominations and selecting the finalists.
Their nomination should therefore not be described as a confirmation that either teacher has won the award. The final outcome will be determined through the FPSP selection process and announced at the award ceremony.
This makes the nomination an important achievement in its own right while leaving the final result to the official FPSP announcement.
About the FPSP Best Teacher Award 2026
The Federation of Private Schools Pakistan (FPSP) organizes the Best Teacher Award to recognize educators and highlight their contribution to the private-school education community.
Teacher recognition plays an important role in promoting a culture in which dedication, professionalism, and meaningful contributions to students are valued. An award such as this also gives schools an opportunity to acknowledge educators whose work often takes place away from public attention.
From lesson preparation and classroom instruction to student guidance and individual support, teachers contribute to many aspects of a student’s educational development.
The FPSP Best Teacher Award 2026 brings that contribution into focus by giving schools an opportunity to nominate educators who represent the values and standards they seek to promote.
Paragon Publications Sponsors the FPSP Best Teacher Award 2026
The FPSP Best Teacher Award 2026 is sponsored by Paragon Publications, a Karachi-based educational publishing company serving the school education sector.
Paragon Publications develops and publishes educational books and learning resources for pre-primary, primary, and secondary students, supporting schools, teachers, and students across different stages of education.
Its educational publishing work includes resources for subjects such as English, Mathematics, Science, and other areas of school learning.
The company’s sponsorship of the FPSP Best Teacher Award reflects a natural connection between educational resources and teaching. While books and learning materials provide structure and support for classroom learning, teachers bring those resources to life through instruction, explanation, encouragement, and interaction with their students.
By supporting the FPSP Best Teacher Award 2026, Paragon Publications is contributing to an initiative that recognizes the educators at the heart of the learning process.

The Importance of Recognizing Teachers
Every school depends on teachers to turn educational objectives into meaningful classroom experiences.
A teacher may spend hours preparing a lesson that students understand in only a few minutes. They may explain the same concept in several different ways until a student finally understands it. They may encourage a student who has lost confidence or provide additional guidance to someone struggling academically.
Much of this work is not visible outside the classroom.
Recognizing teachers provides an opportunity to acknowledge these contributions and remind the wider education community of the people responsible for much of the day-to-day learning experience.
For schools such as Sunbeams Grammar School, teacher recognition can also reinforce the importance of professionalism, dedication, and student-focused education.
