At the end of the event, top three winners for the local finals were announced. According to the decision, Omer Eqbal from Roots School System got the first position, followed by Asif Khawaja from Daanish School and Munazza Butt from Roots School System.

“This is an excellent opportunity for these vibrant and enthusiastic teachers to showcase their expertise. Microsoft lauds their efforts to revolutionize teaching methods by using ICT as a carrier to engage their students and to enhance the effectiveness of education,” Kamal Ahmed, Country General Manager, Microsoft Pakistan, said on the occasion.
