The Best Teacher Gifts to Show Your Appreciation

While teachers appreciate any gift, there are only so many 'best teacher' mugs a person can use. The best gift ideas for a teacher? Practical pieces that make their daily life a little easier (or more relaxing).

Packed with sweet and savoury treats, our hampers are an easy way to say 'thank you' in style. From teatime essentials to indulgent nibbles, there’s something for every taste (and every staffroom).

Scented candles are perfect for unwinding after a long day of lesson planning. Go for calming scents like lavender or a light-up candle to help them switch off and ease into their evening.

And sometimes, the most thoughtful gift is the freedom to choose. Our gift cards can be topped up from £10 to £500, so you can club together with the rest of the class.

If you’re wondering what to get teachers for end-of-year gifts, think about something that helps them wind down and enjoy their well-earned break.

A flowering plant or vibrant seasonal bouquet is always appreciated – a cheerful gesture that brightens up their home and lasts beyond the last day of term. For something a little more personal, holiday beauty treats like SPF essentials or travel-friendly minis make a thoughtful addition to any teacher’s suitcase, especially if they’re heading off on a summer break.

If you want to make them smile, food and drink always hit the mark. A bottle of something bubbly, an afternoon tea hamper or a few M&S treats (Percy Pigs anyone?) are the perfect way to raise a glass (or cup) to a job well done.

And if your child is moving on to a new school, this is your moment to say a proper goodbye. Whether it’s a handwritten card, a small keepsake or a gift card from the whole class, there are plenty of gifts for teachers from students that show just how much they’ve meant.
