At Custom Chic, our personalised lanyards are designed for teachers and other school staff. Each lanyard comes with an adjustable strap and a decorative acrylic pendant. You can personalise it with the teacher's name and a character illustration that resembles them. It's a practical accessory for everyday use or a personal gift to mark the end of the school year.

Personalised ID Lanyards for Busy School Days
Do you often move between the classroom, library, playground and staffroom during the school day? A personalised ID lanyard keeps your access card or keys within easy reach, so you don't have to search through your bag between lessons.
Our personalised lanyards are made for school staff. Primary school teachers can design a pendant with their name and a character illustration that looks like them. Maths, French and music teachers might prefer a design inspired by the subject they teach. The illustrations and personalisation options vary depending on the design.
Looking for a gift for a colleague or your child's teacher? Simply add their name and choose from the available character details. The personalised pendant decorates the strap, with a separate attachment for their school badge or keys.
Add a Teacher's Name and Character to Your Personalised Lanyard
Before creating a personalised lanyard with name, consider what the teacher likes to be called, their appearance and the subject they teach.
-
Teacher's name: Enter their first name or the title their pupils use, according to the available text field.
-
Illustrated character: Choose from the available appearance options to create a character resembling the recipient.
-
Teaching subject: On eligible designs, select a school subject such as maths, English or music.
-
Decorative charms: Some models include seven charm-set options. Select the arrangement that suits your chosen design.
The available character features, subjects and charms differ between products. Check the spelling of the name and review the selected illustration before placing your order. If you are buying several lanyards for colleagues, personalise each product separately to avoid mixing up names or designs.
Personalised Lanyards as Gifts for Teachers and Colleagues
A personalised lanyard is a practical gift for teachers who regularly carry classroom keys or staff ID badges. With their name and an illustrated character displayed on the pendant, they can use it throughout the school day.
An end-of-term thank-you gift can include a lanyard personalised with your child's teacher's name. A school-supplies or teacher-character design reflects their profession, and your child can present it alongside a handwritten card or drawing on the final day of school.
A colleague's birthday or Christmas is a good opportunity to pick a design inspired by the subject they teach. Maths, English and music teachers may appreciate illustrations connected to their roles, depending on the available options.
Starting a new school year often means carrying keys and an ID badge every day. For a new teacher or teaching assistant, a lanyard with their work name and a character illustration that resembles them can be a useful back-to-school present.
Parents organising a group gift can agree on the teacher's name, character details and preferred charm set before placing an order. At the end of the academic year, the children can sign a card to accompany the lanyard.
Ordering and Caring for Your Personalised Lanyard
At Custom Chic, ordering a personalised lanyard starts with selecting a design that matches the teacher's personality or subject. Each lanyard has different personalisation options, including names, illustrated characters, teaching subjects and charm sets. The available fields depend on the chosen design.
The online preview shows how the name and illustration will appear on the finished pendant. A final check of the spelling, character details and layout is important before placing the order.
Each lanyard is made to order. Production takes approximately 3–5 working days, followed by an estimated 8–10 working days for UK delivery. The total estimated time is 11–15 working days, although seasonal demand and delivery conditions may affect arrival dates.
For everyday care, a soft, dry cloth is sufficient to remove dust from the acrylic pendant. Harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, high temperatures and strong impacts may damage the printed surface. Excessive pulling on the strap or decorative attachments should also be avoided.
When the lanyard is not in use, a dry storage space away from heavy or sharp objects can protect the pendant from scratches and other damage.
