World is paying tribute to teachers, educators, researchers and professors on World Teacher’s Day today: The theme for this year’s International Teachers Day is “Teachers: Leading in Crisis, Reimagining the Future”.
World Teachers’ Day is celebrated annually on October 5. It is a day to celebrate the role of all educators, including teachers, researchers and professors.
Also known as International Teachers Day, this day has been celebrated since 1994 to commemorate the anniversary of the adoption of the 1966 ILO/UNESCO Recommendation concerning the Status of Teachers.
In Pakistan, schools and educational institutes were shut earlier this year to slow the spread of the virus. Teachers and professors worked extra hard amid the lockdown to ensure that their students would not suffer.
Many heartwarming stories of teachers going the extra mile also emerged during the lockdown.
World Teachers’ Day is the perfect occasion to thank your teachers and instructors for their hard work.
