Schools in Brazil, the United States, and Hong Kong were among finalists with innovative approaches to education.

'Our children need a quality education to give them the skills and knowledge to thrive in a 21st century economy. They need an education that unleashes their creativity', Her Majesty Queen Rania Al Abdullah of Jordan was quoted as saying.
